Russell, Supervisor of the Town of Southold, in the County of Suffotk, New York (the "Issuer"), HEREBY CERTIFY and reasonably expect with respect to the issuance of the Issuer's $125,000 Bond Anticipation Note for Fishers Island Sewer District-2007 (hereinafter referred to as the "Note" or "Notes"), dated and issued on December 5, 2007, as follows: Unless the context clearly requires otherwise, all capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in Article II hereof or in the Resolution, the Code or the Regulations (each as defined below).

This Certificate is executed and delivered as part of the record of proceedings in connection with the issuance of the Note. The provisions of this Certificate constitute a contractual obligation of the Issuer in consideration for the purchase of and payment for the Note by the purchaser(s) thereof 1.4 No Hedge Bonds.

This Certificate sets forth the facts, estimates and circumstances now in existence which form the basis for the Issuer's expectation that the proceeds of the Note will not be used in a manner that would cause the Note to be an Arbitrage Bond under Section 148 of the Code or a Private Activity Bond under Sections 103 and 141 of the Code. To the best of my knowledge and belief, such expectation is reasonable and there are no other facts, estimates or circumstances that would materially change that expectation. 1.6 No Composite Issue No other tax-exempt governmental obligations have been sold fewer than 15 days prior to, or will be sold fewer than 15 days after, the sale date of 534101.1 030898 CER/ the Note, pursuant to the same plan of financing which are expected to be paid from substantially the same source of funds as the Note. 1.7 Registration.

The Issuer expects to be able to and will comply with all the procedures and provisions set forth in this Certificate, and will do and perform all acts and things necessary and desirable within its reasonable control in order to assure that interest paid on the Note will be excluded from gross income of the owners of the Note for the purpose of federal income taxation. 1.10 Noncompliance. The Issuer shall perform each of the obligations undertaken by it in this Certificate unless, in the written opinion of Bond Counsel, noncompliance with such obligations will not cause interest on the Note to be included in gross income for purposes of Federal income taxation 1.11 Reliance by Bond Counsel. The representations of the Issuer expressed in this Certificate may be relied upon by Bond Counsel in connection with the rendering of any opinion with respect to the Note 1.12 IRS Form 8038-G.

For purposes of this Certificate, Proceeds of the Note are allocable to an unrelated Private Use if such use is neither directly nor operationally related to a governmental use and Proceeds of the Note are allocable to a disproportionate related Private Use to the extent that the Proceeds of the Note which are to be used to finance property used by a 534101 1 030898 CERT person other than a state or local governmental unit in a trade or business which is related to the governmental use of the property referred to in Section 2.6 above, exceeds the Proceeds of the Note which are to be used for the governmental use to which such Private Use relates 2.8 Private Use Defined.

(c) It is reasonably expected that at least 85 percent of the net sale proceeds of such Notes will be expended within three years from the date of this Certificate. Accordingly, the sale proceeds and investment proceeds of the Notes may be invested without restriction as to yield for a temporary period of 3 years from the date hereof, subject to the rebate requirements set forth in Article IV of this Certificate 3.2 cost of the Project No Excess Proceeds. The total proceeds of sale of do not exceed the total 534101 1 030898 CERT 33 Source of Repayment Funds. The Notes will be paid from taxes and other revenues of the Issuer. 34 Debt Service Fund. The taxes used to pay principal and interest on the Notes, whether or not deposited in a debt service fund, will be expended within 13 months of the date of deposit in such fund, or the date of their accumulation, in the payment of debt service on the Notes. Any amounts received from the investment of such deposit or accumulation will be expended within one year of receipt The debt service fund, if any, will be used to achieve a proper matching of revenues and debt service and will be depleted at least annually except for a reasonable carryover amount which will not exceed the greater of the earnings on such fund for the immediately preceding bond year or one-twelfth of the debt service on the Notes for the immediately preceding bond year 3.5 Sinking Funds. Except for the debt service fund described herein the Issuer has not created or established, and does not expect to create or establish, any sinking fund or other similar fund which the Issuer reasonably expects to use to pay principal or interest on the Notes. 3.6 Universal Cap On each Valuation Date, the Issuer shall value the Universal Cap and the Nonpurpose Investments allocable to the Notes thereunder. Nonpurpose Investments in a bona fide debt service fund such as the Bona Fide Debt Service Fund do not reduce the aggregate value of Nonpurpose Investments that may be allocated to the Notes under the Universal Cap. Nonpurpose Investments cease to be allocated to the Notes to the extent such Nonpurpose Investments have been expended for the governmental purpose of the issue, or to the extent the value thereof exceeds the value permitted to be allocated to the issue under the Universal Cap. To the extent Nonpurpose Investments cease to be allocated to an issue and the value of the Universal Cap exceeds the value of the remaining Nonpurpose Investment allocated to such issue, other Nonpurpose Investments may become allocated to the issue, provided that such Nonpurpose Investments are not already properly allocated to another issue and provided that such allocation does not cause the value of Nonpurpose Investments allocated to the Notes to exceed the Universal Cap. Generally, if Gross Proceeds of the Notes invested in Nonpurpose Investments exceed the Universal Cap on a Valuation Date, such Nonpurpose Investments cease to be allocated to the Notes in the following order: (i) amounts allocable to Replacement Proceeds, (ii) amounts allocable to Transferred Proceeds, (iii) amounts allocable to Sale Proceeds and Investment Proceeds of the Notes. Where a Nonpurpose Investment ceases to be allocated to the Notes, such Nonpurpose Investment is susceptible of re-allocation under the Universal Cap calculated with respect to another bond issue A Nonpurpose Investment which is reallocated to another bond issue may be valued under the same valuation method pursuant to which it was valued for purposes of applying the Universal Cap with respect to the Notes 534101.1 030898 CERT Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the failure to perform the determination of Nonpurpose Investments allocable to the Notes as of a Valuation Date shall not be considered a violation of this provision if the value of Nonpurpose Investments allocated to the Notes did not exceed the value of the Notes outstanding on such date. 37 Yield When used in this Certificate, the term "Yield" means the computation as described in Exhibit A and in connection with the Notes, refers to the yield computed by the actuarial or present worth method using a 360-day year and semiannual compounding, and means that discount rate which, when used in computing the present worth of all payments of principal and interest to be paid on an obligation, produces an amount equal to the Issue Price thereof The Yield on the Notes is as shown in Form 8038-G 3.8 Yield Reduction Payments The Issuer may make yield reduction payments, as such term is defined in the Regulations, to reduce the yield on investments under certain circumstances. The Issuer will consult with Bond Counsel prior to making any such payments. 3.9 No Replacement Proceeds. The weighted average maturity of the Notes, as set forth in the Form 8038-G, does not exceed 120 percent of the average reasonably expected useful life of the Project 3.10 No Prohibited Payments. The Issuer has not entered into and will not enter into any transaction to reduce the yield on the investment of the proceeds of the Notes in such a manner that the amount to be rebated to the federal government is less than it would have been had the transaction been at arm's length and the yield on the issue not been relevant to either party. 3.11 Rebate Options. With respect to the investment of the proceeds of the Notes, the Issuer will: (a) invest all gross proceeds at all times from the date hereof until expended in investments not constituting investment property for purposes of Section 148 of the Code such as obligations of a state or of a political subdivision of a state, the interest on which is excluded from gross income for purposes of Federal income taxation under Section 103 of the Code and is not a preference item for purposes of the alternative minimum tax imposed by Section 55 of the Code, (b) invest all gross proceeds in obligations having a yield that does not. exceed the yield on the Notes, or (c) comply with the provisions regarding rebate described in Article IV below. 534101 1 030898 CERT ARTICLE IV Rebate 4.1 Rebate Compliance. The Issuer understands that the continued non- inclusion of interest on the Notes for purposes of federal income taxation depends, in part, upon compliance with the arbitrage limitations imposed by Section 148 of the Code, including the rebate requirements described in Section 4.2 hereof with respect to the Notes. 4.2 Rebate Requirement for the Notes. Section 148(0 of the Code requires the payment to the United States of the excess of the amount earned on the investment of Gross Proceeds in Nonpurpose Investments over the amount that would have been earned had the amount so invested been invested at a rate equal to the Yield on the Notes, together with any income attributable to such excess. Except as provided below, all Gross Proceeds of the Notes are subject to this requirement. In order to meet the rebate requirement of the Code the Issuer must take the following actions: (a) Record of Investments. The Issuer will record the date of receipt, amount and source of any Gross Proceeds, e.g., proceeds from the sale of the Notes, loan repayments, investment earnings. For each Nonpurpose Investment acquired with or allocated to Gross Proceeds of the Issue, the Issuer will record the purchase date or allocation date of such investment, its purchase price (excluding any broker or dealer's commission or discount), or, if not acquired directly with Gross Proceeds, its Value on the date the Nonpurpose Investment is allocated to Gross Proceeds, accrued interest due on its purchase date or allocation date, its face amount, its coupon rate, its Yield, the frequency of its interest payment, its disposition price (excluding any broker or dealer's commission or discount), the accrued interest due on its disposition date and its disposition date. In addition, the Issuer will record the date and amount of all expenditures of Bond proceeds, including expenditures for rebate, other than expenditures to acquire investments. (b) Computation of Rebate Amount. Subject to the special rules set forth in paragraphs (c), (d), (e) and (f) of this Section, the Issuer will determine the Rebate Amount on each Computation Date. The Rebate Amount as of any Computation Date is the excess of the Future Value of all receipts ~vith respect to Nonpurpose Investments over the Future Value of all payments with respect to the purchase of Nonpurpose Investments or the allocation of such investments to the proceeds of the Notes, determined as of each Computation Date To the extent amounts received from investments are reinvested, these amounts may be netted against each other and not taken into account in the Computation of Rebate Amount. The Issuer shall determine the nonpurpose receipts and nonpurpose payments as described below. (i) Receipts Receipts with respect to Nonpurpose Investments include (i) actual receipts, amounts actually or constructively received with respect to an investment, reduced by Qualified Administrative Expenses (ii) disposition receipts, the Fair Market Value of investments deemed to be sold on the date the investment ceases to be allocated to the issue, (except 534101 1 030898 CERT that Present Value may be substituted for Fair Market Value with respect to fixed yield investments, investments required to be yield restricted, and investments transferring by virtue of the universal cap or transferred proceeds roles) and (iii) Computation Date receipts, the Market Value (Present Value, in the case of guaranteed investment contracts and fixed rate investments) of all Nonpurpose Investments allocated to the issue at the close of business on a Computation Date; and (iv) rebate receipts, any recovery of an overpayment of rebate (ii) Payments. Payments with respect to Nonpurpose Investments include (i) direct payments, the amount of Gross Proceeds of the issue directly used to purchase the investment, including Qualified Administrative Costs; (ii) constructive payments, the Value of an investment allocated to (but not directly purchased with) Gross Proceeds on the date so allocated; (iii)Nonpurpose Investments allocated to an issue at the end of the preceding Computation Period, at the value of the investments at the beginning of the computation period; (iv) rebate payments, payments of rebate amounts when due and yield reduction payments on Nonpurpose Investments and (v) the Computation Date Credit. (c) Exception for Gross Proceeds Entirely Spent Within Six Months. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 4.2 to the contrary, if all of the Gross Proceeds of the Notes (other than amounts on deposit in the Debt Service Fund or a reserve fund), including investment earnings received with respect to all Funds and Accounts comprising such issue except the Debt Service Fund, have been expended for the governmental purpose of the issue within six months after the date of issue, then the only Nonpurpose Investments to be taken into account in the calculation of the Rebate Amount with respect to the Non-Construction Notes are Nonpurpose Investments acquired with or allocated to Gross Proceeds held in the Reserve Fund, and to any gross proceeds arising after such six months which were not reasonably anticipated as of the date of issuance. The existence of sinking fund or pledged fund proceeds or the expectation that such proceeds will arise within six months of the issue date will make the six-month expenditure exception to rebate inapplicable. For purposes of this exception, Gross Proceeds used to pay principal of notes are not treated as expended on the governmental purpose of the issue. (d) Exception for Gross Proceeds Entirely Spent Within Eighteen Months. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 42 to the contrary, if all of the Gross Proceeds of the Notes (other than amounts on deposit in the Debt Service Fund or a reserve fund), including investment earnings received with respect to all Funds and Accounts comprising such issue except the Debt Service Fund, have been expended for the governmental purpose of the issue in accordance with the following schedule alter the date of issue: 15% within 6 months, 60% within 12 months and 100% within 18 months, then the only Nonpurpose Investments to be taken into account in the calculation of the Rebate Amount with respect to the Non-Construction Notes are Nonpurpose Investments acquired with or allocated to Gross Proceeds held in the Reserve Fund, and to any gross proceeds arising after such eighteen months which were not reasonably anticipated as of 534101 1 030898 CERT the date of issuance. The existence of sinking fund or pledged fund proceeds or the expectation that such proceeds will arise within eighteen months of the issue date will make the eighteen-month expenditure exception to rebate inapplicable. For purposes of this exception, Gross Proceeds used to pay principal of notes are not treated as expended on the governmental purpose of the issue. However, an issue does not fail to satisfy the spending requirement for the third spending period referenced above in this paragraph as a result of a reasonable retainage, as defined in Treas. Reg. 1.148-7(d)(2), if the reasonable retainage is allocated to expenditures within 30 months of the date of issue. (e) Exception for Gross Proceeds Entirely Spent Within Twenty-Four Months. Notwithstanding anything in this Section 4.2 to the contrary, for Construction Bonds, if all of the Gross Proceeds of the Notes (other than amounts on deposit in the Debt Service Fund or a reserve fund), including investment earnings received with respect to all funds and accounts comprising such issue except the Debt Service Fund, have been expended for the governmental purpose of the issue in accordance with the following schedule after the date of issue: 10% within 6 months, 45% within 12 months, 75% within 18 months and 100% within 24 months, then the only Nonpurpose Investments to be taken into account in the calculation of the Rebate Amount with respect to the Non-Construction Notes are Nonpurpose Investments acquired with or allocated to Gross Proceeds held in the Reserve Fund, and to any gross proceeds arising after such twenty-four months which were not reasonably anticipated as of the date of issuance The existence of sinking fund or pledged fund proceeds or the expectation that such proceeds will arise within twenty-four months of the issue date will make the twenty-four expenditure exception to rebate inapplicable. For purposes of this exception, Gross Proceeds used to pay principal of notes are not treated as expended on the governmental purpose of the issue However, an issue does not fail to satisfy the spending requirement for the third spending period referenced above in this paragraph as a result of a reasonable vetainage, as defined in Treas. Reg. 1.148-7(d)(2), if the reasonable retainage is allocated to expenditures within 30 months of the date of issue. (f) $100,000 Debt Service Fund Gross Earnings Exception Notwithstanding anything in this Section 4.2 to the contrary, if the gross earnings from the investments held in a debt service fund for the Bond Year in question, as determined under paragraph (c), are less than $100,000 then any amount earned on such debt service fund shall not be taken into account in determining the Rebate Amount. In this regard, the $100,000 earnings limitation is deemed satisfied if the annual debt service on the issue does not exceed $2,500,000 For purposes of this paragraph (f), the term "gross earnings" means the aggregate amount earned on the Nonpurpose Investment in which the Gross Proceeds deposited to the debt service fund are invested, including amounts earned on such amounts if al located to the debt service fund (g) Debt Service Fund Exception If the average maturity of the Notes is at least 5 years and the rates of interest do not vary during the term of the issue, then any amount earned on a debt service fund (other than amounts representing accrued interest or capitalized interest) shall not be taken into account in determining the Rebate Amount. 534101 I 030898 CERT 4.3 Payment to United States. (a) Unless the Notes are redeemed prior to such time, the Issuer will pay to the United States, not later than 60 days after each Installment Computation Date, an amount which, when added to previous rebate payments made with respect to the Notes, is equal to not tess than 90 percent of the Rebate Amount, less the Computation Date Credit. The Issuer will pay to the United States, not later than 60 days after the Notes are fully paid or redeemed, t00 percent of the Rebate Amount, less the Computation Date Credit If the final rebate payment is made within 60 days after the Final Computation Date, interest on the Rebate Amount will be deemed to accrue at the underpayment rate under Section 6201 of the Code, beginning on the date the Rebate Amount is due and ending on the date 10 days before it is paid. (b) The Issuer will mail each payment to the Internal Revenue Service Center, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania 19255. Each payment shall be accompanied by the copy of the Form 8038-T and the Form 8038-G or 8038-GC filed with respect to the Bond issue and a statement identifying the issuer and the issue, including the CUSIP number for the Bond with the latest maturity for which there is a CUSIP number. 4.4 Recordkeeping.

For purposes of this definition earnings include earnings on any tax-exempt bond.

For purposes of this definition, real property means land improvements, buildings, other inherently permanent structures, including items that are structural components of such buildings or structures, wiring in a building, plumbing systems, central heating or central air-conditioning systems, pipes or ducts, elevators or escalators installed in a building, paving parking areas, roads, wharves and docks, bridges, and sewage lines. "Fair Market Value" of an Investment shall have the following meanings: (a) In General. Except as elsewhere specifically stated below, the Fair Market Value of an Investment is the price at which a willing buyer would purchase the Investment from a willing seller in a bona fide, arm's-length transaction. (b) United States Treasury Obligation. The Fair Market Value ora United States Treasury Obligation that is purchased directly from the United States Treasury is its purchase price (c) Certificate of Deposit. The Fair Market Value of a certificate of deposit with a fixed interest rate, a fixed payment schedule, and a substantial penalty for early withdrawal is its purchase price provided, the Yield on the certificate of deposit is not less than (i) the Yield on reasonably comparable direct obligations of the United States and (ii) the highest Yield published by the provider and currently available from the provider on reasonably comparable certificates of deposit offered to the public (d) Guaranteed Investment Contracts The Fair Market Value of a guaranteed investment contract is its purchase price, provided (i) the Issuer makes a bona fide solicitation for such contract and receives at least three bona fide bids from providers with no material interest in the issue; (ii) the Issuer purchases the highest-yielding guaranteed investment contract for which a qualifying bid is made (determined net of broker's fees); (iii) the Yield on such contract (determined net of broker's fees) is not less than the Yield then available from the provider on reasonably comparable investment contracts, if any, offered to other persons from a source of funds other than gross proceeds of tax-exempt bonds; (iv) the determination of the terms of a guaranteed investment contract takes into account as a significant factor the Issuer's reasonably expected drawdown schedule for amounts to be invested, exclusive of float and reserves, (v) the terms of the contract, including collateral security requirements are reasonable, and (vi) the obligor certifies the administrative costs it is paying to third parties in connection with the contract. To the extent that the administrative cost does not exceed the lesser of a reasonable amount based on what would be charged for the same or comparable investment acquired with a source of funds other than Gross Proceeds of tax exempt bonds or the Present Value of annual payments equal to five one-hundredths of one percent (0.05%) of the weighted average amount reasonably expected to be invested each year of the contract, it may be taken into account in determining Yield, with the effect that it will increase the payments for, or decrease the receipts from, Investments. For this purpose, Present Value is to be computed using the taxable discount rate used by the parties to compute the commission or, if not readily ascertainable, a reasonable taxable discount rate. "Final Computation Date" means the day the last Bond that is part of the Bonds is discharged. "Future Value" or "FV" of a payment or receipt means the amount, determined by using the economic accrual method (the method of computing yield based on the compounding of interest at the end of each compounding period), equal to the value of such payment or receipt at the time it is paid or received (or treated as paid or received), plus interest assumed to be earned and compounded over the period at a rate equal to the yield on the issue, using the same compounding interval and financial conventions used to compute yield. "Governmental Bonds" means bonds which are not Private Activity Bonds. "Gross Proceeds" means Sale Proceeds, Transferred Proceeds, Investment Proceeds and Replacement Proceeds "Issue Date" means December 5, 2007, the date on which the Notes are delivered to the underwriters and payment of the purchase price of the Notes is received by the Issuer.

Bond house, brokers, or similar persons or organizations acting in the capacity of underwriters or wholesalers are not included in the definition of "public" for purposes of the preceding sentence. If the obligations are privately placed, the Issue Price is the price paid for them by the first buyer. The Issue Price of obligations that are publicly offered in a bona fide public offering is determined on the basis of actual facts and reasonable circumstances existing on the sale date unadjusted for subsequent occurrences "Installment Computation Date" means the last day of the fifth Bond Year and the last day of each succeeding fifth Bond Year (until and excluding the Final Computation Date) and, if the Issuer so elects, the last day of any Bond Year.

The guarantor must not expect to make any payments other than those pursuant to a direct-pay letter of credit or similar arrangement for which the guarantor will be immediately reimbursed. Reasonable procedural or administrative requirements or, in the case of a guarantee against failure to remarker a qualified tender bond, commercially reasonable limitations based on credit risk, will not cause the guarantee to be conditional. The guarantor may not be a co-obligor, nor may the obligor and any related parties combined use more than 10 percent of proceeds of the guaranteed portion of the bonds. The guarantee fee must not exceed a reasonable arm's-length charge solely for the transfer of the credit risk. A guarantee will not be qualified unless, as of the date the guarantee is obtained, the issuer reasonably expects that the present value of all fees for the guarantee will be less than the present value of the expected interest savings on the issue as a result of the guarantee. For this purpose, present value is computed using the yield on the issue, determined with regard to the guarantee fees, as the discount rate "Rebate Amount" means with respect to the Notes, the amount computed as described in Section 4.3 of the Certificate. "Regulations" means the Income Tax Regulations promulgated under Sections 103 and 141 to 150 of the Code by the Department of the Treasury from time to time, including the Regulations published on June 18, 1993 in the Federal Register, as they may be amended from time to time, "Replacement Proceeds" means amounts with a sufficiently direct nexus to the Notes or Project to conclude that such amounts would have been used for the Project if the proceeds of the Notes were not so used to the extent held by or derived from the Issuer or a controlled entity of the Issuer, including: sinking funds, pledged funds (including negative pledges), certain other amounts if the term of the issue is longer than necessary for the governmental purposes of the Notes, and a bond-funded working capital reserve unless the Notes qualify for one of the exceptions provided in the Regulations. Certificate. "Resolution" means the bond resolution of the Issuer, as referred to in the "Sale Proceeds" means any amounts actually or constructively received from the sale of an issue, including amounts used to pay underwriters' discount or compensation, accrued interest other than Pre-Issuance Accrued Interest, or derived from the sale of a right associated with a bond as further described in Section 1.148-4(b)(4) of the Regulations. Series. "SLG" means a U.S. Treasury Book Entry Security, State and Local Government "Spendable Proceeds" means sale proceeds, less the portion of those sale proceeds invested in a reasonably required reserve or replacement fund under Section 148(d) of the Code and as part of a minor portion under Section 148(e) of the Code. "Transferred Proceeds" means unexpended original or investment proceeds of a refunded issue which transfer and become proceeds of the refunding issue when proceeds of the refunding issue are applied to pay principal of the refunded issue. "Treasury" means the United States Department of Treasury. "Universal Cap" means the maximum value of Nonpurpose Investments which may be allocated to the Notes and is determined by reference to the Value of all outstanding Notes of the issue Nonpurpose Investments shall be taken into account as Nonpurpose Receipts at their Value on a Valuation Date. "Valuation Date" means the date on which the value of the Universal Cap and the Nonpurpose Investments allocable to the Notes thereunder are determined. With respect to new money issues, the first Valuation Date shall be the second year anniversary date of the date of issuance of the Notes; thereafter, the first day of each Note Year shall constitute a Valuation Date. With respect to a refunding issue, each date on which proceeds of the refunded issue would become transferred proceeds of the refunding issue, eg. each date on which principal of the refunded issue is paid with proceeds of the refunding bonds, shall constitute a Valuation Date. In addition, the first date of each Note Year shall also be a Valuation Date. "Value" means, in the case of a Note, the Value of a Note and in the case of an Investment, the Value of an Investment "Value of the Note" means, in the case of a Plain Par Note, its outstanding stated principal amount, plus accrued unpaid interest or in the case of a Plain Par Note actually redeemed, or treated as redeemed, its stated redemption price on the redemption date plus accrued unpaid interest. In the case ora bond other than a Plain Par Note, the value on a date of such a bond is its Present Value on that date, using the yield on the issue of which the bonds are a part as the discount factor. In determining the Present Value of a variable rate bond, the initial interest rate on the bond established by the index or other rate setting mechanism is used to determine the interest payments on that bond. "Value of an Investment" means, as of any date, unless the Investment is required invested as a restricted yield, for any Investment, Fair Market Value as of that date; for any fixed rate investment, Present Value on that date; and for any Plain Par Investment, the outstanding stated principal amount, plus accrued unpaid interest, as of that date. Yield restricted investments must be valued at Present Value, amounts allocated or that cease to be allocated to an issue must be allocated at Fair Market Value, except in cases in which such Nonpurpose Investments are allocated as a result of the Universal Cap or Transferred Proceeds rules in which case they may be valued at Present Value, and amounts allocated to Transferred Proceeds may not be valued in excess of the value used for arbitrage restrictions applicable to the Refunded Issue. "Working Capital Expenditure" means any cost of a type that does not constitute a Capital Expenditure. "Yield" means, as of any Computation Date, that discount rate that, when used in computing the Present Value of (i) all unconditionally payable payments of principal and interest of or on the bonds included in such fixed yield issue, (ii) all unconditionally payable fees for Qualified Guarantees and Qualified Hedges on such bonds and (iii) all fees expected to be paid for Qualified Guarantees and Qualified Hedges, produces an amount equal to the sum of the Present Value of the aggregate Issue Prices of the bonds comprising the issue (determined using the same discount rate used to determine the Present Value of payments for principal, interest and Qualified Hedges and Qualified Guarantees). The Yield is computed as of the issue date of the fixed yield issue by treating each bond included in the issue that is either subject to mandatory or contingent early redemption or to certain optional redemption provisions as being redeemed on its expected early redemption date for an amount equal to its Value on that date. If a fixed yield bond (i) is subject to optional redemptions within 5 years of its issue date and the Yield not taking into account the optional redemption is more than 1/8 of 1% above its Yield assuming the early redemption, (ii) is issued at an Issue Price that exceeds the stated redemption price at maturity by more than 1/4 of 1% multiplied by the product of the stated redemption price to maturity and the number of complete years to the first optional redemption date for the bond, or (iii) bears interest at increasing interest rates, the Yield on the issue including such fixed yield bond is computed by treating the fixed yield bond as redeemed at its stated redemption price on the optional redemption date that produces the lowest Yield on the issue. No adjustment will be made on any Computation Date to the Yield on a fixed yield issue as computed on its issue date unless redemption rights are subsequently transferred to a third party or termination payments are received with respect to Qualified Hedges. The Yield on a fixed yield bond is calculated in the same manner as Yield on a fixed yield issue.
