In order to finance capital expenditures and general City liquidity needs, the City shall establish a revolving line of credit and issue and sell a note to evidence such line. The Note shall be -6 -FG: la0499140.4 designated the "City of Camas, Washington Limited Tax General Obligation Bond Anticipation Note, 2022" and issued in the denomination of not to exceed $7,000,000 (the "Note"). The Note shall be dated the date of delivery to the Purchaser (the "Date of Delivery"). Interest on the outstanding principal balance of the Note, if any, shall be payable on the first day of each month, commencing October 1, 2022. The Note matures on, and all outstanding principal and interest on the Note must be paid by, a date that is two years from the dated date of the Note (the "Maturity Date"). The Note is a revolving line of credit, so that principal amounts previously advanced and repaid may be drawn again; provided that the aggregate principal amount of all draws under the Note that have not been repaid may at no time exceed $7,000,000. Each draw pursuant to a Request for Draw for any portion of proceeds to be used for a pe1111itted tax-exempt purpose under the Code and satisfying the conditions set forth in Section 9 of this ordinance regarding conditions for the initial tax-exempt draw, shall bear interest at the Tax-Exempt Rate.

Each draw pursuant to a Request for Draw for any portion of proceeds that is not used for a permitted tax exempt-purpose under the Code shall bear interest at the Taxable Rate. Such Request for a Draw shall mark the Taxable Rate box on the draw form. Interest on each draw shall accrue from the latter of (i) the Draw Date set forth on the Request for a Draw and (ii) the date of actual funding of the draw by Purchaser, until paid and such interest shall be computed on the principal amount outstanding on each day and at the applicable interest rate for that day during the applicable interest pc1iod on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of 12 30-day months. Interest payable on the Note on each interest payment date shall be the sum of interest accruing on all the outstanding draws during the interest pe1iod. Any Request for a Draw shall be in the form of Exhibit A attached hereto with the blanks appropriately completed. Each Authorized Officer is hereby authorized to review and determine whether the draw is for a pem1itted tax-exempt purpose (in which such draw will bear interest at the Tax-Exempt Rate) or that it is not for a permitted tax-exempt purpose (in which case such draw will bear interest at the Taxable Rate). Notwithstanding the foregoing, so long as an event of default (as defined in Section 12) has occurred and is continuing hereunder, outstanding principal amounts may bear interest at a default rate as outlined in Section 12 hereof. The Note shall be issued in fully registered fo1111. Both principal of and interest on the Note shall be payable in lawful money of the United States of America by check, wa1nnt, wire transfer or automatic clearinghouse funds. The Purchaser will give 10 days' prior notice to the City of the approximate amount ( depending on changes in the interest rate, any draws and any prepayments on the Note occmTing after the date of such notice) to be debited. Principal and interest shall be an obligation only of the Note Fund. The City Finance Director shall act as Note Registrar. The Outstanding Principal Balance of the Note on any paiiicular day shall be the aggregate of all funds which the City has drawn from the date of the Note to that day less the aggregate of all principal payments made by the City on or before that day. Interest on a paiiicular principal amount so advanced shall be detennined from the date of the advance of Note proceeds pursuant to a Request for Draw by the City. -7 -FG: l00499140.4 A Request for Draw pursuant to the Note may be made by an Authorized Officer in writing at any time prior to the Maturity Date, so long as no event of default ( as defined in Section 12) has occurred and is continuing.

The obligation of the Purchaser to fund the Draw is subject to the satisfaction of the following conditions precedent on the Draw Date: (I) the representations of the City agreed to in this ordinance shall be true and con-ect in all material respects on and as of such Draw Date, and shall be deemed to have been made on such Draw Date; (2) no event of default (as defined in Section 12) shall have occurred and be continuing on such Draw Date; (3) after giving effect to such Draw, the aggregate principal amount of all Draws shall not exceed $7,000,000; and (4) the Purchaser shall have received an executed Request for Draw as required under, and in strict confom1ity with this paragraph.

Any such transfer shall be without cost to the owner or transferee and shall be noted in the Note Register. The Note may only be assigned by the Purchaser to another qualified investor satisfying the requirements set forth in the certificate to be signed by the Purchaser on the Date of Delivery. The interest accruing on the Note, which is denominated in Dollars, may be determined by reference to a benchmark rate that is, or may in the future become, the subject of regulatory reform or cessation. The Purchaser does not warrant or accept responsibility for, and shall not have any liability with respect to (a) the administration of, submission of, calculation of or any other matter related to Term SOFR, any component definition thereof or rates referenced in the definition thereof or any alternative, comparable or successor rate thereto (including any then-current Benchmark or any Benchmark Replacement), including whether the composition or characteristics of any such alternative, comparable or successor rate (including any Benchmark Replacement) will be similar to, or produce the same value or economic equivalence of, or have the same volume or liquidity as, Term SOFR or any other Benchmark, or (b) the effect, implementation or composition of any Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. Section 4. Temporary Inability to Determine Rates; Effect of Benchmark Replacement Date. (a) Tempormy Inability to Determine Rates. If the Purchaser determines (which determination shall be conclusive and binding absent manifest error) that Term SOFR cannot be determined pursuant to the definition thereof or that Term SOFR does not adequately and fairly -8 -FG: I 00499140.4 reflect the cost to the Purchaser of funding the Note, then the Purchaser will promptly so notify the City. Upon notice thereof by the Purchaser to the City, any obligation of the Purchaser to make or continue loans pursuant to draws shall be suspended until the Purchaser revokes such notice. Upon receipt of such notice, (i) the City may revoke any pending request for draws or, failing that, the City will be deemed to have converted any such request into a request for a draw based on the Base Rate in the amount specified therein and (ii) for any outstanding draws the interest rate shall be converted to the Base Rate at the end of the applicable Term SOFR Index Reset Rate. (b) Benchmark Replacement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, upon the occurrence of a Benchmark Transition Event, upon the consent of both parties, the Purchaser and the City may replace the Tenn SOFR Rate with a Benchmark Replacement. Unless otherwise agreed between the Purchaser and the City, no replacement of the Tenn SOFR Rate with a Benchmark Replacement pursuant to this Section 4 will occur prior to the applicable Benchmark Transition Start Date. Unless and until a Benchmark Replacement is effective in accordance with this clause (b ), all draws shall be converted to the Base Rate in accordance with the provisions of clause (a) above. (c) Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes. In connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement, the City and Purchaser, upon the consent of the other, will have the right to make Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes from time to time and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in the Note, any amendments implementing such Benchmark Replacement Conforming Changes will become effective without any fu1iher action.

The Purchaser will promptly notify the City of (i) any occmTence of a Benchmark Transition Event, and, upon consent of the City, its related Benchmark Replacement Date and Benchmark Transition Start Date, (ii) the implementation of any Benchmark Replacement, (iii) the effectiveness of any Benchmark Replacement Confom1ing Changes and (iv) the commencement or conclusion of any Benchmark Unavailability Period. Any determination, decision or election that may be made by the Purchaser pursuant to this Section 4, including any determination with respect to a tenor, rate or adjustment or of the occurrence or non-occurrence of an event, circumstance or date and any decision to take or refrain from taking any action, will be conclusive and binding absent manifest error and may be made in its or their sole discretion and without consent from any other party hereto, except, in each case, as expressly required pursuant to this section. (e) Unavailability of Tenor of Benchmark. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein or in the Note, at any time (including in connection with the implementation of a Benchmark Replacement), (i) if any then-current Benchmark is a term rate (including Term SOFR) and either (A) any tenor for such Benchmark is not displayed on a screen or other information service that publishes such rate from time to time as selected by the Purchaser in its reasonable discretion or (B) the regulatory supervisor for the administrator of such Benchmark has provided a public statement or publication of information announcing that any tenor for such Benchmark is or will be no longer representative, then the Purchaser may modify the Interest Period for any Benchmark settings at or after such time to remove such unavailable or non-representative tenor, upon notice to the City, and (ii) if a tenor that was removed pursuant to - 9 -FG: 100499140.4 clause (i) above either (A) is subsequently displayed on a screen or information service for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement) or (B) is not, or is no longer, subject to an announcement that it is or will no longer be representative for a Benchmark (including a Benchmark Replacement), then the Purchaser may modify the Interest Period for all Benchmark settings at or after such time to reinstate such previously removed tenor, upon consent of the City. (f) Benchmark Unavailability Period. Upon the City's receipt of notice from the Purchaser of the commencement of a Benchmark Unavailability Period, the Taxable Rate shall be the Base Rate and the Tax-Exempt Rate shall be (a) Base Rate multiplied by (b)(i) one minus (ii) the United States federal corporate tax rate (subject to clause (g), below). (g) Opinion or Tax Gross-up Required. Upon the replacement of a Benchmark with a Benchmark Replacement, or the Base Rate pursuant to subsections (a) and (f), above, with respect to the draws under the Note in the Tax-Exempt Rate (the "Tax-Exempt Draws"), then, either: (1) the City, at its own expense, will deliver to the Purchaser an opinion of bond counsel reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser that the replacement of the existing Benchmark with Benchmark Replacement (or replacement with the Base Rate) does not adversely affect the exclusion from gross income of interest on the Tax-Exempt Draws from gross income of the owner of the Note for federal income tax purposes; or (2) if no such opinion is delivered to the Purchaser on the Benchmark Replacement Date ( or effective date of the Base Rate), the interest rate on such Tax-Exempt Draws shall be at the Taxable Rate then applicable and such Benchmark Replacement or Base Rate, as applicable, shall not be multiplied by (i) one minus (ii) the United States federal corporate tax rate.
