RESOLUTION OF OFFICIAL INTENT TO REIMBURSE
EXPENDITURES WITH PROCEEDS OF A BORROWING
WHEREAS, the City of Fairfax, Virginia (the "Borrower"), intends to undertake a program
of capital improvement projects for the public school system of the City (collectively, the "Project");
and
WHEREAS, plans for the Project have advanced and the Borrower expects to advance its own
funds to pay expenditures related to the Project (the "Expenditures") prior to incurring indebtedness
and to receive reimbursement for such Expenditures from proceeds of tax-exempt bonds or taxable
debt, or both;
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF FAIRFAX,
VIRGINIA:
1. The Borrower intends to utilize the proceeds of tax-exempt bonds (the "Bonds") or
to incur other debt, to pay the costs of the Project in an amount not currently expected to exceed
$25,600,000.
2. The Borrower intends that the proceeds of the Bonds be used to reimburse the
Borrower for Expenditures with respect to the Project made on or after October 15, 1997, which date
is no more than 60 days prior to the date hereof. The Borrower reasonably expects on the date hereof
that it will reimburse the Expenditures with the proceeds of the Bonds or other debt.
3. Each expenditure was or will be, unless otherwise approved by bond counsel, either
(a) of a type properly chargeable to a capital account under general federal income tax principles
(determined in each case as of the date of the Expenditure), (b) a cost of issuance with respect to the
Bonds, (c) a nonrecurring item that is not customarily payable from current revenues, or (d) a grant
to a party that is not related to or an agent of the Borrower so long as such grant does not impose any
obligation or condition (directly or indirectly) to repay any amount to or for the benefit of the
Borrower.
4. The Borrower intends to make a reimbursement allocation, which is a written
allocation by the Borrower that evidences the Borrower's use of proceeds of the Bonds to reimburse
an Expenditure, no later than 18 months after the later of the date on which the Expenditure is paid
or the Project is placed in service or abandoned, but in no event more than three years after the date
on which the Expenditure is paid. The Borrower recognizes that exceptions are available for certain
"preliminary" expenditures," costs of issuance, certain de minimis amounts, expenditures by "small
issuers" (based on the year of issuance and not the year of expenditure) and expenditures for
construction of at least five years.
5. The Borrower intends that the adoption of this resolution confirms the "official intent"
within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.150-2 promulgated under the Internal Revenue
Code of 1986, as amended.
6. This resolution shall take effect immediately upon its passage.
ADOPTED THIS
9~;h DAY OF DECEMBER, 1997.
