rates, have such payment date or dates, prepayment dates and prepayment premiums, and be issued at such <br />prices as are approved in writing by the City, subject to the requirements of the Indenture. <br /> <br />RISK FACTORS AND INVESTMENT CONSIDERATIONS <br /> <br /> The purchase of the Certificates involves certain investment risks that are discussed throughout this <br />Official Statement. Each prospective purchaser of the Certificates shouM make an independent evaluation of <br />all of the information presented in this Official Statement in order to make an informed investment decision. <br />Certain risk factors relating to the Certificates are described below. <br /> <br />Limited Obligations <br /> <br /> The Certificates are payable from amounts due under the Lease, which constitute currently budgeted <br />expenditures of the City, payable only if the City Council appropriates sufficient money to extend the term of <br />the Lease for each successive fiscal year. The Initial Term of the Lease commences as of February 1, 1997, <br />and expires on June 30, 1997. The Lease is thereafter subject to 19 successive one-year Renewal Terms <br />commencing on July 1 of each year, with a final renewal term commencing July 1, 2016 and ending February <br />2, 2017. The City's obligations under the Lease do not constitute an indebtedness within the meaning of any <br />constitutional or statutory debt limitation or restriction. Although the City intends to satisfy its obligations to <br />pay Base Rentals out of the revenues to be generated from the Project, such revenues are not pledged to the <br />payment of the Certificates. <br /> <br /> The City Council has declared its current intention and expectation that the Lease will be renewed <br />annually until the City exercises its option to acquire the Trustee's interest in the Leased Property. However, <br />such a declaration may not be construed as contractually obligating or otherwise binding the City. <br />Accordingly, the likelihood that the City will renew the Lease for all Renewal Terms and continue to pay the <br />Base Rentals thereunder to enable the Trustee to timely pay the principal and interest component of Base <br />Rentals distributable with respect to the Certificates is dependent upon certain factors which are beyond the <br />control of the Owners, including (1) the availability of funds from the Certificates or other sources in an <br />amount sufficient to complete the Project, (2) the City's continuing need for the Leased Property, (3) the <br />demographic conditions within the City, (4) the City's ability to generate sufficient funds from the Project, <br />property taxes, sales taxes, utility fees and charges and other sources to pay its obligations under the Lease and <br />its other obligations and (5) the value of the Leased Property if relet or sold in a foreclosure or other <br />liquidation proceeding instituted by the Trustee if the term of the Lease is terminated as a result of an Event of <br />Default or Event of Nonappropriation. <br /> <br />Expiration or Termination of the Lease <br /> <br /> The Lease will expire by its terms on June 30 during each year from 1997 through 2016, with a final <br />Lease expiration date of February 2, 2017, unless the City in its sole discretion exercises the option provided <br />in the Lease to extend its term for each next succeeding Renewal Term. If the City does not extend in any <br />year the term of the Lease, the City's obligation to make Payments will terminate on the June 30 occurring at <br />the end of the Initial Term or the then current Renewal Term. Upon (1) the expiration of the Initial Term or <br />any Renewal Term during which an Event of Nonappropriation occurs (which is not waived by the Trustee as <br />provided in the Lease) or (2) a default under the Lease and an election by the Trustee to terminate the City's <br />possessory interest under the Lease, the City's right of possession of the Leased Property under the Lease will <br />expire or be terminated, as appropriate. See "SUMMARY OF CERTAIN PROVISIONS OF THE LEASE <br />-- Events of Default" and "-- Remedies on Default" in Appendix.d hereto. <br /> <br />-11- <br /> <br /> <br />
