proposed to be provided by it;
SF2-35643.1 2
(ii) to any Substitute Depository not objected to by the Treasurer, upon
(1) the resignation of The Depository Trust Company or its successor (or any Substitute
Depository or its successor) from its functions as depository, or (2) a determination by the
Treasurer to substitute another depository for The Depository Trust Company (or its successor)
because it is no longer able to carry out its functions as depository; ron vided, that any such
Substitute Depository shall be qualified under any applicable laws to provide the services
proposed to be provided by it; or
(iii) to any person as provided below, upon (1) the resignation of The
Depository Trust Company or its successor (or any Substitute Depository or its successor) from
its functions as depository, or (2) a determination by the Treasurer to discontinue using a
depository.
(C) In the case of any transfer pursuant to clause (i)or clause (ii) of subsection
(B) of this section, upon receipt of all outstanding Notes by the Treasurer, a single new Note,
which the County shall prepare or cause to be prepared, shall be executed and delivered and
registered in the name of such successor or such Substitute Depository, or its nominee, as the
case may be. In the case of any transfer pursuant to clause (iii) of subsection (B) of this section,
upon receipt of all outstanding Notes by the Treasurer, new Notes, which the County shall
prepare or cause to be prepared, shall be executed and delivered in such denominations and
registered in the names of such persons as are determined by the Treasurer.
(D) The County and the Treasurer shall be entitled to treat the person in whose
name any Note is registered as the owner thereof for all purposes of this resolution and for
purposes of payment of principal and interest on such Note, notwithstanding any notice to the
contrary received by the Treasurer or the County; and the County and the Treasurer shall not
have responsibility for transmitting payments to, communicating with, notifying, or otherwise
dealing with any beneficial owners of the Notes. Neither the County nor the Treasurer shall
have any responsibility or obligation, legal or otherwise, to any such beneficial owners or to any
other party, including The Depository Trust Company or its successors (or any Substitute
Depository or its successor), except to the registered owner of any Notes, and the Treasurer may
rely conclusively on its records as to the identity of the registered owners of the Notes.

outstanding Notes are registered in the name of The Depository Trust Company or its registered
assigns, the County and the Treasurer shall cooperate with The Depository Trust Company, as
sole registered owner, and its registered assigns in effecting payment of the principal of and
interest on the Notes by arranging for payment in such manner that funds for such payments are

inconsistent provisions herein.
SF2-35643.1 3
(F) In the case of any transfer pursuant to clause (iii) of subsection (B) of this
section, any Note may, in accordance with its terms, be transferred or exchanged for a like
aggregate principal amount of Notes in authorized denominations, upon the books required to
be kept by the Treasurer pursuant to the provisions hereof, by the person in whose name it is
registered, in person or by such person's duly authorized attorney, upon surrender of such Note ;
for cancellation, and, in the case of a transfer, accompanied by delivery of a written instrument
of transfer, duly executed in form approved by the Treasurer.
Whenever any Note shall be surrendered for transfer or exchange, the County
shall execute and the Treasurer shall deliver a new Note or Notes of authorized denominations
for a like aggregate principal amount. The Treasurer shall require the registered owner
requesting such transfer or exchange to pay any tax or other governmental charge required to
be paid with respect to such transfer or exchange.
(G) The Treasurer will keep or cause to be kept, at its office in Martinez,
California, sufficient books for the registration and transfer of the Notes, which shall at all times
be open to inspection by the County. Upon presentation for such purpose, the Treasurer shall,
under such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, register or transfer or cause to be
registered or transferred, on such books, Notes as hereinbefore provided.
(H) If any Note shall become mutilated, the County, at the expense of the
owner of such Note, shall execute, and the Treasurer shall thereupon deliver a new Note of like
tenor bearing a different number in exchange and substitution for the Note so mutilated, but only
upon surrender to the Treasurer of the Note so mutilated. If any Note shall be lost, destroyed
or stolen, evidence of the ownership thereof, and of such loss, destruction or theft may be
submitted to the County and the Treasurer and, if such evidence be satisfactory to both and
indemnity satisfactory to them shall be given, the County, at the expense of the owner, shall
execute, and the Treasurer shall thereupon deliver a new Note of like tenor and bearing a
different number in lieu of and in substitution for the Note so lost, destroyed or stolen (or, if
any such Note shall have matured, instead of issuing a substitute Note, the Treasurer may pay
the same without surrender thereof). The Treasurer may require payment by the registered
owner of a Note of a sum not exceeding the actual cost of preparing each new Note issued
pursuant to this paragraph and of the expenses which may be incurred by the County and the
Treasurer. Any Note issued under these provisions in lieu of any Note alleged to be lost,
destroyed or stolen shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation on the part of the
County whether or not the Note so alleged to be lost, destroyed or stolen shall be at any time
enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to the benefits of this Resolution with all other
Notes secured by this Resolution.
(I) All Notes surrendered for payment or registration of transfer, if
surrendered to any person other than the Treasurer, shall be delivered to the Treasurer and shall
be promptly cancelled by it. The County may at any time deliver to the Treasurer for
cancellation any Notes previously delivered hereunder which the County may have acquired in
any manner whatsoever, and all Notes so delivered shall promptly be cancelled by the Treasurer.
SF2-35643.1 4
No Note shall be delivered in lieu of or in exchange for any Notes cancelled as provided herein,
except as expressly permitted hereunder. All cancelled Notes held by the Treasurer shall be
disposed of as directed by the County.
Section 4. The Notes shall be issued without coupons and shall be substantially
in the form and substance set forth in Exhibit A attached hereto and by reference incorporated
herein, the blanks in said form to be filled in with appropriate words or figures.
Section 5. There is hereby established a separate fund in the County treasury for
the purpose of ensuring the application of the proceeds representing principal received from the
sale of the Notes for the purpose specified in Section 2 hereof for which the Notes are to be
issued, which separate fund is hereby designated the "Mt. Diablo Unified School District
1994-95 Tax and Revenue Anticipation Note Proceeds Fund" (the "Proceeds Fund"). The
District shall, immediately upon receiving the proceeds of the sale of the Notes, place in the
Proceeds Fund all amounts representing principal received from such sale. All money held by
the Treasurer in the Proceeds Fund shall be invested as permitted by the Government Code, and
the proceeds of such investments shall be retained in the Proceeds Fund.
Amounts in the Proceeds Fund shall be withdrawn and deposited in the General
Fund of the District, and expended for any purpose for which the District is authorized to
expend funds from its General Fund, but only after exhausting funds otherwise available for such
purposes (which are not restricted funds) and only to the extent that on any given day such other
funds are not then available, and for purposes of this paragraph, otherwise available amounts
excludes amounts that are held or set aside in a reasonable working capital reserve not exceeding
five per cent (5%) of the District's total working capital expenditures from its available funds
in Fiscal Year 1993-94; provided, that if on the date that is six (6) months from the date of
issuance of the Notes, all amounts in the Proceeds Fund (including investment earnings thereon)
shall not have been so withdrawn and spent, the District shall promptly notify Orrick,
Herrington & Sutcliffe ("Bond Counsel"), and, to the extent of.its power and authority, comply
with the instructions from Bond Counsel as to the means of satisfying the rebate requirements
of Section 148 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. For purposes of this paragraph, the
"proceeds" of the Notes are equal to the initial offering price of the Notes to the public, as
certified by the purchaser of the Notes.
Section 6. (A) The principal of and interest on the Notes shall be payable from
taxes, income, revenue, cash receipts and other moneys which are received by the District for
the General Fund of the District for the Fiscal Year 1994-95 and which are lawfully available
for the payment of current expenses and other obligations of the District (the "Unrestricted
Revenues").
(B) As security for the payment of the principal of and interest on the Notes,
the County (for and on behalf of the District) hereby covenants to deposit in trust in a special
fund designated as the "Mt. Diablo Unified School District 1994-95 Tax and Revenue
Anticipation Note Repayment Fund" (the "Repayment Fund"), which fund will be held by the
SF2-35643.1 5
Treasurer acting as the responsible agent to maintain such fund until the payment of the principal
of the Notes and the interest thereon: (i) an amount equal to fifty per cent (50%) of the
principal amount of the Notes from the Unrestricted Revenues to be received by the District
during the month ending April 30, 1995, and (ii) an amount equal to fifty per cent (50%) of the
principal amount of the Notes, together with an amount sufficient to pay the interest on the
Notes at maturity, from the Unrestricted Revenues to be received by the District during the
month ending May 31, 1995, together with an amount sufficient (net of anticipated earnings on
money in the Repayment Fund) to satisfy and make up any deficiency in the Repayment Fund.
The amounts pledged by the County (for and on behalf of the District) for deposit into the
Repayment Fund from the Unrestricted Revenues received during each indicated month are
hereinafter called the "Pledged Revenues."
(C) In the event that there have been insufficient Unrestricted Revenues
received by the District by the third business day prior to the end of either such month to permit
the deposit into the Repayment Fund of the full amount of the Pledged Revenues required to be
deposited with respect to such month, then the amount of any deficiency in the Repayment Fund
shall be satisfied and made up from any other money of the District lawfully available for the
payment of the principal of the Notes and the interest thereon (all as provided in Sections 53856
and 53857 of the Government Code) (the "Other Pledged Moneys") on such date or thereafter
on a daily basis, when and as such Pledged Revenues and Other Pledged Moneys are received
by the District.
(D) Any money placed in the Repayment Fund shall be for the benefit of the
registered owners of the Notes, and until the principal of the Notes and all interest thereon are
paid or until provision has been made for the payment of the principal of the Notes at maturity
with interest to maturity, the money in the Repayment Fund shall be applied only for the
purposes for which the Repayment Fund is created.
(E) All Pledged Revenues, and any other deposits required to be made into the
Repayment Fund, shall, when received, be deposited in the Repayment Fund. On the date of
maturity of the Notes, the money in the Repayment Fund shall be used, to the extent necessary,
to pay the principal of and interest on the Notes. Any money remaining in or accruing to the
Repayment Fund after the principal of the Notes and the interest thereon have been paid, or
provision for such payment has been made, shall be transferred to the General Fund of the
District.
(F) Money in the Repayment Fund, to the greatest extent possible, shall be
invested by the Treasurer, as permitted by applicable California law, as it is now in effect and
as it may be amended, modified or supplemented from time to time.
Section 7. The Treasurer or a duly appointed deputy Treasurer is hereby
authorized to manually execute the Notes and the Clerk of the Board and County Administrator
or a duly appointed deputy is hereby authorized to manually countersign the Notes. The Clerk
of the Board and County Administrator or a duly appointed deputy is hereby authorized to affix
SF2-35643.1 6
the seal of the County to the Notes by manual impression thereof. The .Treasurer is hereby
authorized to cause the blank spaces of the Notes to be filled in as may be appropriate.
Section 8. It is hereby covenanted that the County, and its appropriate officials,
have duly taken all proceedings necessary to be taken by them, and will take any additional
proceedings necessary to be taken by them, for the levy, collection and enforcement of the
Pledged Revenues in accordance with law for carrying out the provisions of this resolution and
the Notes.
Section 9. (A) The District has represented that it shall not take any action, or
fail to take any action, if such action or failure to take such action would adversely affect the
exclusion from gross income of the interest payable on the Notes under Section 103 of the
Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (as used in this Section 9, the "Code"). Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, the District has covenanted that it will comply with the
requirements of the Tax Certificate of the District with respect to the Notes, to be entered into
by the District as of the date of issuance of the Notes, and further stipulates that such
representation and covenant shall survive payment in full or defeasance of the Notes.
(B) In the event the Notes shall be subject to the rebate requirements of Section
148 of the Code, the District shall be responsible for making all calculations in a reasonable and
prudent fashion relating to any rebate of excess investment earnings on the proceeds of the Notes
due to the United States Treasury, and the Treasurer shall, upon the direction of the District,
segregate and set aside from the lawfully available sources held by the Treasurer on behalf of
the District, the amount such calculations indicate may be required to be paid to the United
States Treasury, and shall otherwise at all times, upon the direction of the District, do and
perform all acts and things necessary and within its power and authority, including complying
with each applicable requirement of Section 103 and Sections 141 through 150 of the Code and
complying with the instructions of Bond Counsel to assure that interest paid on the Notes shall,
for the purposes of federal income taxes and California personal income taxation, be excludable
from the gross income of the recipients thereof and exempt from such taxation. If so directed
by the District, the Treasurer will immediately set aside from District revenues attributable to
the 1994-95 Fiscal Year or, to the extent not available from such revenues, from any other
money lawfully available, the amount of any such rebate in a separate fund which the Treasurer
hereby agrees to establish and maintain on behalf of the District and to designate as the "Mt.
Diablo Unified School District 1994-95 Tax and Revenue Anticipation Note Rebate Fund."
(C) Notwithstanding any other provision of this resolution to the contrary,upon
the County's failure to observe, or refusal to comply with, the covenants contained in this
section, no one other than the holders or former holders of the Notes shall be entitled to exercise
any right or remedy under this resolution on the basis of the County's failure to observe, or
refusal to comply with, such covenants.
(D) The covenants contained in this section shall survive the payment of the
Notes.
SF2-35643.1 7
(E) Notwithstanding any provision of this section, if the District shall provide
to the Treasurer an opinion of Bond Counsel that any specified action required under this section
is no longer required or that some further or different action is required to maintain the
exclusion from gross income for federal income tax purposes of interest on the Notes, the
Treasurer and the County may conclusively rely on such opinion in complying with the
requirements of this section, and the covenants hereunder shall be deemed to be modified to that
extent.
Section 10. The form of proposed Official Notice of Sale inviting bids for the
Notes, in substantially the form on file with the Clerk of this Board of Supervisors, is hereby
approved and adopted as the Official Notice of Sale inviting bids for the Notes, subject to such
completion, correction, revision or additions hereafter deemed necessary by the Treasurer upon

the Internal Revenue Code of 1986. See the discussion of Tax Exemption in the Official Statement
hereinafter referred to. In the event that prior to the delivery of the Notes (a) the income received
by private holders from Notes of the same type and character shall be declared to be includable in
gross income (either at the time of such declaration or at any future date) for purposes of federal
income tax laws, either by the terms of such laws or by ruling of a federal income tax authority or
official which is followed by the Internal Revenue Service, or by decision of any federal court, or
(b) any federal income tax law is adopted which will have a substantial adverse tax effect on holders
of the Notes as such, the successful bidder may, at its option, prior to the tender of the Notes by the
District, be relieved of its obligation under to purchase the Notes, and in such case the deposit made

right to exercise its own discretion and judgment in making the award and may award the Notes on
a pro rata basis in such denominations as the Treasurer-Tax Collector of the County shall determine.
