LAHD Request for Authority to Issue a Note for The BanningPage 4 Changes in Design: A significant factor for the increase in hard costs was a change in design based onrequirements from the Los Angeles Department of Building and Safety (LADBS) and the CaliforniaGeologic Energy Management Division (CalGEM) regarding three underground plugged oil wells thatexist on the project site. The initial design of the project consisted of a single building containing all 64units, but after discussion with LADBS and CalGEM, the developer had to transition the project design toa two-building layout to avoid having any portion of the building footprint over any of the existing oilwells. The change of the design increased the hard cost an additional 6,426,531 to the totaldevelopment costs. This averages out to 100,415 per unit. Methane Mitigation: LADBS requires a methane mitigation system. The additional cost is 350,000 or 5,469 per unit.Affordability RestrictionsPursuant to the City of Los Angeles Affordable Housing Bond Policies & Procedures (“AHBPP”) for Private ActivityBonds for Multifamily Rental Properties, approved September 24, 2019, the Project must provide long-termaffordable housing in the City of Los Angeles. Therefore, in connection with the issuance of the tax-exemptbond(s), one or more Bond Regulatory Agreements will be executed and recorded in the official records of theLos Angeles County Recorder’s Office. Each Bond Regulatory Agreement will include affordability restrictionsthroughout a term ending no sooner than the later of: 1) 15 years after the date on which 50% of the dwellingunits are first occupied; 2) the date such bond(s) are paid in full; or, 3) the date on which any Section 8 assistanceterminates, if applicable. In addition to the above, the bond award includes a CDLAC Resolution, which requiresthat the Project’s affordable housing units remain affordable for 55 years.Additionally, on December 8, 2021, the Project was awarded an allocation of 4% Low Income Housing Tax Credits(“LIHTC”) from the California Tax Credit Allocation Committee (“CTCAC”). On December 1, 2020, the City Counciland Mayor approved this Project for Proposition HHH Permanent Supportive Housing Loan Program funding(“HHH”, see C.F. No. 17-0090-S8). As a result of this award, the project will have affordability restrictions for aterm of 55 years. Affordability restrictions mean that for at least 55 years at least 40% of the units have to berented at or below 60% of the area median income. Please see Table 4, below, for the specific affordabilityrestrictions.Supportive housing units will be targeted toward persons experiencing homelessness and chronic homelessnessat or below 50% of Area Median Income (“AMI”); 31 units will be reserved for persons experiencinghomelessness and 32 units will be reserved for persons experiencing chronic homelessness.

(“Lender”) has proposed a “back-to-back loan” structure that allows Lender to betterachieve its required goals under the Community Reinvestment Act (“CRA”). The proposed tax-exempt back-toback loan structure characterizes Lender’s involvement as the funding of a tax-exempt and taxable “loans”rather than a purchase of a tax-exempt and taxable bonds (replacing the terms “bond” and “bonds” with “note”and “notes”). Lender’s ability to achieve its goals under CRA is fundamental to its ability to continue to allocatesignificant levels of capital to affordable housing in the City.The City, as Issuer, will issue a tax-exempt note (the “Tax-Exempt Note”) and a taxable note (together, “Notes”),which will be unenhanced and unrated but subject to the City’s AHBPP, in one or more series. The Notes will beprivately placed and initially purchased by the Lender. Lender will, by purchasing the Notes, fund a loan(“Funding Loan”) to the City and the City will issue the Notes to the Lender. The proceeds of the Funding Loanwill be used by the City to make a loan to the Borrower (“Borrower Loan”) in the amount not to exceed 21,213,423, pursuant to the terms of a Borrower Loan Agreement among the City, a to-be-named corporate

LAHD Request for Authority to Issue a Note for The BanningPage 7fiscal agent (“Fiscal Agent”), the Lender, and the Borrower. The Borrower will execute promissory notes(“Borrower Note”) as evidence to repay the Borrower Loan. The City will assign the Borrower Note to the FiscalAgent, as security for the Notes. Among its various functions, the Fiscal Agent will receive funds advanced byLender in exchange for additional principal amount of the Notes and release such funds to the Borrower for theProject construction. The Borrower Loan will have a term of 26 months and shall bear interest equal to theSecured Overnight Financing Rate (“SOFR”), with an index floor rate of 1.8%; the current indicative rate is 2.30%.At conversion from construction financing to permanent financing, a portion of the Borrower Loan will be paiddown with sources available at the permanent financing phase, including investor equity. The remaining balanceof the Borrower Loan will convert to a fixed-rate tax-exempt permanent loan, evidenced solely by the TaxExempt Note, from the permanent lender, Citibank, N.A., in an amount up to 6,009,000, which will have a 20year term from the date of conversion and bear a fixed interest rate currently estimated to be 4.00%.The financing structure will include financing or loans from HHH as noted above, the Los Angeles CountyDevelopment Authority (“LACDA”) No Place Like Home (“NPLH”), FHL Bank San Francisco Affordable HousingProgram (“AHP”), 4% federal tax credit equity, and the Housing Authority of the City of Los Angeles (“HACLA”)Section 8 program.LAHD requires that the Lender meet the City’s Responsible Banking Ordinance #182138 reporting requirements.At closing, bond counsel will provide the required legal opinions as to the tax-exempt status of the interest onthe Notes, under federal and state law. The legal and financing documents will include language that establishesthe Note structure as a limited obligation and strictly payable from Project revenues. The Project financingcomplies with both the City’s AHBPP and Financial Policies. Additionally, the legal and financing documents willrequire the Borrower to provide annual statements and information as requested by LAHD.LAHD’s Bond Team for the financing of the Project is as follows:Bond Issuer MunicipalAdvisor:CSG Advisors, Inc.315 W. 5th Street, Suite 302Los Angeles, CA 90013Bond Issuer Counsel:Los Angeles City Attorney200 N.
