2 below, and (ii) that the total number of residential dwelling units anticipated to be
constructed pursuant to the current development plan for CFD No.2006-02 shall not be less
than 99 and the amount of non-residential Acreage will not be more than 0.0 Acres,then a

Letter of Compliance shall be submitted to the City and/or property owner by the CFD
Administrator approving the issuance of the requested building permits for the subject
property,and such subject property shall no longer be subject to the terms of the Special Tax
Buydown. This Letter of Compliance shall be submitted to the City and/or property owner
by the CFD Administrator within ten days of the submittal of the request for Letter of
Compliance by the property owner. However,should(i)the building permits requested,plus
those previously issued, cause the total number of residential dwelling units or non-
residential Acreage within any such Land Use Class to exceed the number of residential
dwelling units or non-residential Acreage for such Land Use Class identified in Table 2
below, or(ii)the CFD Administrator determine that changes in the development plan may
cause a decrease in the number of residential dwelling units within CFD No. 2006-02 to
below 99 residential dwelling units or an increase in the amount of non-residential Acreage
to above 0.0 Acres, then a Letter of Compliance will not be issued and the CFD
Administrator will be directed to determine if a Special Tax Buydown shall be required. The
number of residential dwelling units and non-residential Acreage,as listed in Table 2 below,
may be updated by the CFD Administrator prior to the issuance of the first series of CFD No.
2006-02 Bonds.

3. Calculation of Special Tax Buydown
If a Special Tax Buydown calculation is required as determined by the CFD Administrator
pursuant to paragraph 2 above,the CFD Administrator shall review the current development
plan for CFD No.2006-02 in consultation with the current property owners for all remaining
Undeveloped Property in CFD No.2006-02,and shall prepare an updated version of Table 2
identifying the revised number of residential dwelling units or non-residential Acreage
anticipated within each Land Use Class. The CFD Administrator shall not be responsible for
any delays in preparing the updated Table 2 that results from a refusal on the part of one or
more current property owners of Undeveloped Property to provide information on their
future development.
City of Rancho Cucamonga(Amador on Route 66) August 3,2006
CFD No.2006-02 page 8
Resolution No. 06-246
Page 16 of 21
The CFD Administrator shall then review the updated Table 2 and determine the Special Tax
Buydown Requirement, if any, to be applied to the property identified in the request for
Letter of Compliance to assure the CFD's ability to levy special taxes equal to 110% debt
service coverage on the Outstanding Bonds,plus Administrative Expenses. The calculations
shall be undertaken by the CFD Administrator,based on the data in the updated Table 2,as
follows:
Step 1. Compute the sum of the Maximum Special Tax authorized to be levied on all
Developed Property and Update Property within CFD No.2006-02,plus the
sum of the Maximum Special Tax authorized to be levied on all future
development as identified in the current development plan as determined by
the CFD Administrator in consultation with the property owner(s).
Step 2. Determine the amount of Special Tax required to provide 110%debt service
coverage on the Outstanding Bonds,plus any other payments included in the
Special Tax Requirement.
Step 3.If the total sum computed pursuant to step 1 is greater than or equal to the
amount computed pursuant to step 2,then no Special Tax Buydown will be
required and a Letter of Compliance shall immediately be issued by the CFD
Administrator for all of the building permits currently being requested. If the
total sum computed pursuant to step 1 is less than the amount computed
pursuant to step 2, then continue to step 4.
Step 4.Determine the Maximum Special Tax shortfall by subtracting the total sum
computed pursuant to step 1 from the amount computed pursuant to step 2.
Divide this Maximum Special Tax shortfall by the amount computed
pursuant to step 2.
Step 5.The Special Tax Buydown Requirement shall be calculated using the
prepayment formula described in Section I,with the following exceptions:(i)
skip Paragraphs 1, 2 and 3, and begin with Paragraph 4; (ii) the Bond
Redemption Amount in Paragraph 4 of the prepayment formula described in
Section I shall equal the product of the quotient computed pursuant to step 4
above times the Previously Issued Bonds, as defined in Section I; (iii) the
Capitalized Interest Credit described in Paragraph 12 of Section I shall be$0;
and(iv)any payments of the Special Tax Buydown(less Administrative Fees
and Expenses) shall be disbursed pursuant to the Fiscal Agent Agreement.
The Special Tax Buydown computed under step 5 shall be billed directly to the property
owner of each Assessor's Parcel identified in the request for Letter of Compliance and shall
be due within 30 days of the billing date. If the Special Tax Buydown is not paid within 45
days of the billing date,a delinquent penalty of 10 percent shall be added to the Special Tax
Buydown. Upon receipt of the Special Tax Buydown payment,the CFD Administrator shall
issue a Letter of Compliance and a Certificate of Satisfaction of Special Tax Buydown for
the subject property,and such subject property shall no longer be subject to the terms of the
Special Tax Buydown.

4. Costs and Expenses Related to Implementation of Special Tax Buydown
The property owner of each Assessor's Parcel identified in the request for Letter of
Compliance shall pay all costs of the CFD Administrator or other consultants required to
review the application for building permits,calculate the Special Tax Buydown,issue Letters
of Compliance or any other actions required under Section D. Such payments shall be due
30 days after receipt of invoice by such property owner. A deposit may be required by the
CFD Administrator prior to undertaking work related to the Special Tax Buydown.
E. METHOD OF APPORTIONMENT OF THE SPECIAL TAX
Commencing with Fiscal Year 2006-07 and for each following Fiscal Year,the Council shall
determine the Special Tax Requirement and shall levy the Special Tax until the total Special
Tax levy equals the Special Tax Requirement. The Special Tax.shall be levied each Fiscal
Year as follows:
First: The Special Tax shall be levied on each Assessor's Parcel of Developed Property in an
amount equal to 100%of the applicable Maximum Special Tax;
Second: If additional monies are needed to satisfy the Special Tax Requirement after the
first step has been completed, the Special Tax shall be levied Proportionately on each
Assessor's Parcel of Undeveloped Property at up to 100%of the Maximum Special Tax for
Undeveloped Property;
Third: If additional monies are needed to satisfy the Special Tax Requirement after the first
two steps have been completed,then the Special Tax shall be levied Proportionately on each
Assessor's Parcel of Taxable Public Property and Taxable Property Owner Association
Property at up to the Maximum Special Tax for Taxable Public Property and Taxable
Property Owner Association Property;
Notwithstanding the above the Council may, in any Fiscal Year, levy Proportionately less
than 100% of the Maximum Special Tax in step one (above), when (i) the Council is no
longer required to levy the Special Tax pursuant to steps two and three above in order to
meet the Special Tax Requirement; and (ii) all authorized CFD No. 2006-02 Bonds have
already been issued or the Council has covenanted that it will not issue any additional CFD
No. 2006-02 Bonds(except refunding bonds) to be supported by the Special Tax.
Further notwithstanding the above, under no circumstances will the Special Tax levied
against any Assessor's Parcel of Residential Property for which an occupancy permit for
private residential use has been issued be increased by more than ten percent as a
consequence of delinquency or default by the owner of any other Assessor's Parcel within
CFD No. 2006-02.
F. EXEMPTIONS
No Special Tax shall be levied on up to 6.0 Acres of Public Property and/or Property Owner
Association Property. Tax-exempt status will be assigned by the CFD Administrator in the
City of Rancho Cucamonga(Amador on Route 66) August 3,1006
CFD No.2006-02 Page 10
Resolution No. 06-246
Page 18 of 21
chronological order in which property becomes Public Property or Property Owner
Association Property. However,should an Assessor's Parcel no longer be classified as Public
Property or Property Owner Association Property, its tax-exempt status will be revoked.
Public Property or Property Owner Association Property that is not exempt from the Special
Tax under this section shall be subject to the levy of the Special Tax and shall be taxed
Proportionately as part of the third step in Section E above,at up to 100%of the applicable
Maximum Special Tax for Taxable Public Property and Taxable Property Owner Association
Property.
G. APPEALS AND INTERPRETATIONS
Any landowner or resident who feels that the amount of the Special Tax levied on their
Assessor's Parcel is in error may submit a written appeal to CFD No. 2006-02. The CFD
Administrator shall review the appeal and if the CFD Administrator concurs,the amount of
the Special Tax levied shall be appropriately modified through an adjustment to the Special
Tax levy in the following Fiscal Year. No refunds shall be given in the current Fiscal Year.
The Council may interpret this Rate and Method of Apportionment for purposes of clarifying
any ambiguity and make determinations relative to the annual administration of the Special
Tax and any landowner or resident appeals. Any decision of the Council shall be final and
binding as to all persons.
H. MANNER OF COLLECTION
The Special Tax will be collected in the same manner and at the same time as ordinary ad
valorem property taxes; provided, however, that CFD No. 2006-02 may directly bill the
Special Tax, may collect Special Taxes at a different time or in a different manner if
necessary to meet its financial obligations,and may covenant to foreclose and may actually
foreclose on delinquent Assessor's Parcels as permitted by the Act.
I. PREPAYMENT OF SPECIAL TAX
The following additional definition applies to this Section I:
"Previously Issued Bonds" means, for any Fiscal Year, all Outstanding Bonds that are
deemed to be outstanding under the Fiscal Agent Agreement after the first interest and/or
principal payment date following the current Fiscal Year.
Only an Assessor's Parcel of Developed Property, or Undeveloped Property for which a
building permit has been issued,may be prepaid. The Special Tax obligation applicable to
an Assessor's Parcel in CFD No. 2006-02 may only be prepaid after all authorized CFD No.
2006-02 Bonds have already been issued,or after the Council has covenanted that it will not
issue any additional CFD No. 2006-02 Bonds(except refunding bonds)to be supported by
Special Taxes levied under this Rate and Method of Apportionment. The obligation of the
Assessor's Parcel to pay any Special Tax may be permanently satisfied as described herein,
provided that a prepayment may be made with respect to a particular Assessor's Parcel only if
City of Rancho Cucamonga(Amador on Route 66) August 3,2006
CFD No.2006-01 Page 11
Resolution No. 06-246
Page 19 of 21
there are no delinquent Special Taxes with respect to such Assessor's Parcel at the time of
prepayment. An owner of an Assessor's Parcel intending to prepay the Special Tax
obligation shall provide the CFD Administrator with written notice of intent to prepay.
Within 30 days of receipt of such written notice, the CFD Administrator shall notify such
owner of the prepayment amount of such Assessor's Parcel. Prepayment must be made not
less than 45 days prior to any redemption date for the CFD No. 2006-02 Bonds to be
redeemed with the proceeds of such prepaid Special Taxes.
The Special Tax Prepayment Amount (defined below) shall be calculated as
summarized below(capitalized terms as defined below):
Bond Redemption Amount
plus Redemption Premium
plus Defeasance Amount
plus Administrative Fees and Expenses
less Reserve Fund Credit
less Capitalized Interest Credit
Total: equals Special Tax Prepayment Amount
As of the proposed date of prepayment,the Special Tax Prepayment Amount shall be
calculated as follows:
Paragraph No.:
1. Confirm that no Special Tax delinquencies apply to such Assessor's Parcel.
2. For Assessor's Parcels of Developed Property, compute the Maximum
Special Tax for the Assessor's Parcel to be prepaid. For Assessors Parcels of
Undeveloped Property for which building permits have already been issued,
compute the Maximum Special Tax for the Assessor's Parcel to be prepaid as
though it were already designated as Developed Property, based upon the
building permit which has been issued for that Assessor's Parcel.
3. Divide the Maximum Special Tax computed pursuant to paragraph 2 by the
estimated Maximum Special Taxes for CFD No. 2006-02 based on the
Developed Property Special Taxes which could be charged in the current
Fiscal Year on all expected development in CFD No.2006-02(as reasonably
determined by the CFD Administrator), excluding any Assessor's Parcels
which have been prepaid; and
4. Multiply the quotient computed pursuant to paragraph 3 by the Previously
Issued Bonds to compute the amount of Previously Issued Bonds to be retired
and prepaid (the "Bond Redemption Amount").
5. Multiply the Bond Redemption Amount computed pursuant to paragraph 4 by
the applicable redemption premium (e.g., the redemption price— 100%), if
any, on the Previously Issued Bonds to be redeemed (the "Redemption
Premium").
City of Rancho Cucamonga(Amador on Route 66) August 3,1006
CFD No. 2006-02 Page 12
Resolution No. 06-246
Page 20 of 21
6. Compute the amount needed to pay interest on the Bond Redemption Amount
from the first bond interest and/or principal payment date not covered by the
current Fiscal Year Special Taxes until the earliest redemption date for the
Previously Issued Bonds.
7. Determine the Special Taxes levied on the Assessor's Parcel in the current
Fiscal Year that have not yet been paid.
8. Compute the minimum amount the CFD Administrator reasonably expects to
derive from the reinvestment of the Special Tax Prepayment Amount less the
Administrative Fees and Expenses (defined below) from the date of
prepayment until the redemption date for the Previously Issued Bonds to be
redeemed with the prepayment.
9. Add the amounts computed pursuant to paragraphs 6 and 7 and subtract the
amount computed pursuant to paragraph 8 (the "Defeasance Amount').
10. The administrative fees and expenses of CFD No.2006-02 are as calculated
by the CFD Administrator and include the costs of computation of the
prepayment, the costs to invest the prepayment proceeds, the costs of
redeeming CFD No.2006-02 Bonds,and the costs of recording any notices to
evidence the prepayment and the redemption(the "Administrative Fees and
Expenses").
11. The reserve fund credit(the"Reserve Fund Credit")shall equal the lesser of:
(a)the expected reduction in the reserve requirement(as defined in the Fiscal
Agent Agreement), if any, associated with the redemption of Previously
Issued Bonds as a result of the prepayment, or (b) the amount derived by
subtracting the new reserve requirement (as defined in the Fiscal Agent
Agreement) in effect after the redemption of Previously Issued Bonds as a
result of the prepayment from the balance in the reserve fund on the
prepayment date, but in no event shall such amount be less than zero. No
Reserve Fund Credit shall be granted if the amount then on deposit in the
reserve fund for the Previously Issued Bonds is below 100% of the reserve
requirement (as defined in the Fiscal Agent Agreement).
12. If any capitalized interest for the Previously Issued Bonds will not have been
expended as of the date immediately following the first bond interest and/or
principal payment date following the current Fiscal Year, a capitalized
interest credit shall be calculated by multiplying the quotient computed
pursuant to paragraph 3 by the expected balance in the capitalized interest
fund after such first interest and/or principal payment (the "Capitalized
Interest Credit").
13. The Special Tax prepayment is equal to the sum of the amounts computed
pursuant to paragraphs 4,5,9,and 10,less the amounts computed pursuant to
paragraphs 11 and 12 (the "Special Tax Prepayment Amount").
City of Rancho Cucamonga(Amador on Route 66) August 3,2006
CFD No. 2006-01 Page 13
Resolution No. 06-246
Page 21 of 21
From the Special Tax Prepayment Amount,the amounts computed pursuant to paragraphs 4,
5,9, 10, 11 and 12 shall be deposited into the appropriate fund as established under the Fiscal
Agent Agreement and be used to redeem Previously Issued Bonds, as applicable, or make
scheduled debt service payments or to pay administrative expenses related to the prepayment
of the Special Tax.
The Special Tax Prepayment Amount may be insufficient to redeem a full$5,000 increment
of CFD No. 2006-02 Bonds. In such cases,the increment above$5,000 or integral multiple
thereof will be retained in the appropriate fund established under the Fiscal Agent Agreement
to be used with the next prepayment of CFD No.2006-02 Bonds or to make scheduled debt
service payments on such bonds.
Upon confirmation of the payment of the current Fiscal Year's Special Tax levy as
determined under paragraph 7 (above), the CFD Administrator shall remove the current
Fiscal Year's Special Tax levy for such Assessor's Parcel from the County tax rolls. With
respect to any Assessor's Parcel for which the Special Tax obligation is prepaid in accordance
with this Section I, the Council shall cause a suitable notice to be recorded in compliance
with the Act,to indicate the prepayment of Special Taxes and the release of the Special Tax
lien on such Assessor's Parcel,and the obligation of such Assessor's Parcel to pay the Special
Tax shall cease.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Special Tax prepayment shall be allowed unless, at the
time of such proposed prepayment, the amount of Maximum Special Taxes that may be
levied on Taxable Property within CFD No. 2006-02 (after excluding 6.0 Acres of Public
Property and Property Owner Association Property as set forth in Section F)both prior to and
after the proposed prepayment is at least equal to the sum of(i)the Administrative Expenses,
as defined in Section A above, and (ii) 1.10 times the maximum annual debt service on all
Outstanding Bonds.
J. TERM OF SPECIAL TAX
The Special Tax shall be levied for a period not to exceed fifty years commencing with Fiscal
Year 2006-07, provided however that Special Taxes will cease to be levied in an earlier
Fiscal Year if the CFD Administrator has determined (i) that all required interest and
principal payments on the CFD No. 2006-02 Bonds have been paid; and(ii)all Authorized
Facilities have been constructed.
