Herberg, General Manager Originator: Robert Ghirelli, Assistant General Manager SUBJECT: ELECTRONIC RECORDING MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING COUNTY OF ORANGE CLERK-RECORDER'S OFFICE GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION A. Approve the Electronic Recording Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the County of Orange, Clerk-Recorders office; and B. Authorize the Clerk of the Board, or her designee, to transmit/record any and all required Orange County Sanitation District real property documents in an electronic format. SUMMARY The County of Orange, Clerk-Recorder's Office accepts electronically recorded documents in lieu of written paper documents. OCSD and the Clerk-Recorder have determined that an electronic recordation system benefits both entities economically and operationally. Valuable staff hours are saved in the transportation of documents to and from the County with long waiting periods for recordation. Clerk-Recorder staff installs the Electronic Recording (ER) software on a workstation provided by the District at a secured location in the Board Services Vault. This ER computer workstation will be exclusively dedicated to Electronic Recording and may only be used to transmit documents to, or receiving messages/confirmations from the Clerk-Recorder's Office. The workstation cannot be used by OCSD staff for any other function. A Cybercard is required for the recordation function and will be controlled and used solely by the Clerk of the Board or her designee. The recording takes a few minutes and an answer is received within hours of either its successful recordation or a notification of its failure and reason why. There is no direct cost to the District, as the County will install the system on District provided dedicated equipment. The County will also provide training to the appropriate staff during installation at our facility, and will further maintain and update the system free of charge. The minimal indirect cost of the Board Services staff time maintaining the system and recording documents is still a substantial savings in comparison to the existing indirect cost of other district staff's travel time (to/from County offices), postage costs, locating, routing and/or transferring documents to other departments. Page 1 of 2 PRIOR COMMITTEE/BOARD ACTIONS N/A ADDITIONAL INFORMATION The County Electronic Recording program was established in May 1997, and has grown from a few hundred documents a day an average of 2,500 documents daily and the total number of electronically recorded documents now successfully exceed 4.4 million. The City Clerk's Offices of Huntington Beach, Laguna Beach, and several other Orange County cities, have been using the ER Program for many years and completely endorse this successful program; citing more accurate recordings, no loss of vital documents and greater time savings. CEQA N/A BUDGET/DELEGATION OF AUTHORITY COMPLIANCE This request complies with the authority levels of the Sanitation District's Delegation of Authority. Orange County Sanitation District is exempt from recording costs. The cost of additional Cybercards is $50.00 each, which will be absorbed by Board Services if the need for an additional card is required.

Memorandum of Understanding — Electronic Recording JH:RG:MA:kl Page 2 of 2 Return to Aaenda Report Hugh Nguyen Cbdc-Recorder ORANGE COUNTY HALL OF RECORDS AND FINANCE • 12 CIVIC CENTER PLAZA, ROOM 101 P.O. BOX 238,SANTA ANA, CALIFORNIA 92702-0238 PHONE(714)834-2248 FAX(714)834-2675 ELECTRONIC RECORDING MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING This Memorandum of Understanding dated September 11, 2013, is between the Orange County Clerk-Recorder and Orange County Sanitation District, recording electronically in Orange County. For purposes of this memorandum of understanding, Electronic Recording is defined as: a. The transmission of real property documents in electronic format by an authorized title company, mortgage banker, full service bank official or other trusted entity over an internet connection to the Recorder's Office in Santa Ana and, b. The County Clerk-Recorder's deputized examiners will perform a document examination using the same procedures and standards as those used by conventional methods of recording. A confirmation will be transmitted back to the party requesting the recording that indicates the recording has been completed. This confirmation does include the recording endorsement. C. In cases of documents rejected in the recording process, return of the rejected imaged documents along with the explanatory notice to the title company, mortgage banker, full service bank or other trusted entity over the same internet connection and subsequently the transmission back to the Recorders Office with the appropriate corrections having been made prior to the 4:00 p.m. recording deadline. In general, it is understood that: d. All state licensed title companies, mortgage bankers, full service banks or other trusted entities doing business in Orange County and/or serving Orange County residents are eligible to participate in the Electronic Recording Program. e. Participation in the Electronic Recording Program is voluntary and the decision to do so is a business judgment. Companies electing not to participate will receive service at the same level prevailing at outset of the program in May 1997, though it is understood that by definition Electronic Recording is much faster than conventional recording methods. f. Participating in Electronic Recording will require meeting the necessities for recording electronically as prescribed by the County. RECITALS WHEREAS, Government Code section 27279.1 allows the Orange County Clerk- Recorder to accept electronically recorded documents in lieu of written paper documents, provided it is in the best interest of Orange County and public, and Return to Mende Report WHEREAS, the Clerk-Recorder has determined that it is in the best interest of the County to accept electronically recorded documents inasmuch as it evens out the daily workflow in the office reducing overtime and related costs while elevating the level of recording service to the highest in the nation, and WHEREAS, since its inception in May, 1997, Electronic Recording in Orange County has grown from just four participating companies submitting a few hundred documents a day to 175 companies submitting an average of 2,500 documents daily and the total number of electronically recorded documents now successfully exceeds 4.4 million, and WHEREAS, County residents and taxpayers as well as the title insurance companies, mortgage bankers, full service banks or other trusted entities benefit economically and operationally by electronic recordation, and, WHEREAS, Electronic Recording mandates a close daily working relationship as well as mutual trust between the Clerk-Recorder's Office and company officials, and WHEREAS, company officials share with the Clerk-Recorder the need to operate and maintain a secure recording system that safeguards parties to recordation from deceit, fraud and forgery, and WHEREAS, company officials will ensure that only original documents holding original signatures that are properly notarized are submitted for Electronic Recording, and WHEREAS, the County Clerk-Recorder may from time-to-time update the system to enhance and improve system security as deemed necessary for the benefit of Orange County citizens. NOW, THEREFORE, the parties hereto agree as follows; 1. Terms This Memorandum of Understanding shall become effective upon the signature of parties and shall remain in effect unless terminated by one party in accordance with this Memorandum. 2. Eligibility A participant who electronically records documents must be either a licensed title insurer, as defined in section 12340.4 of the Insurance Code, or a licensed underwritten title company, as defined in Section 12340.5 of the Insurance Code or a mortgage bank with $4 billion outstanding in real estate loans, a full service bank or other trusted entities serving the citizens of Orange County and approved by the Clerk-Recorder. Page 1 of 2 Return to Mende Report Scope of Services A. County Clerk-Recorder 1.

Documents submitted electronically will be examined for suitability for recording by certified document examiners who will follow procedures and standards identical to those employed in conventional forms of examination. 5. If the system causes delays or power failures interfere with the normal course of business, the Clerk-Recorder will notify the affected companies with a choice of using a courier service or waiting until the problem has been remedied. 6. The Clerk-Recorder may terminate access to any electronic recording system, or any part of a system, or may terminate access of any authorized submitter, or any authorized staff, at any time it deems it necessary to protect the public interest, to protect the integrity of public records, to protect homeowners or real property owners from financial harm. No cause of action or liability against the Clerk-Recorder or any government agency shall arise from the decision of the Clerk-Recorder to terminate or deny access of any person to the electronic recording system. 7. If the County Clerk-Recorder, believes that an electronic recording system is vulnerable to fraud or intrusion, the Clerk-Recorder shall immediately take the necessary steps to guard against any compromise of the electronic recording system including, if necessary, the suspension of the electronic recording system. 8.

Herberg, General Manager Originator: Lorenzo Tyner, Director of Finance and Administrative Services SUBJECT: REVENUE REFUNDING CERTIFICATE ANTICIPATION NOTES, SERIES 2013A GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION A. Adopt Resolution No. OCSD 13-XX, authorizing the execution and delivery by the Orange County Sanitation District of an Installment Purchase Agreement, a Trust Agreement and a Continuing Disclosure Agreement in connection with the execution and delivery of Orange County Sanitation District Revenue Refunding Certificate Anticipation Notes, Series 2013A, authorizing the execution and delivery of such Notes evidencing principal in an aggregate amount of not to exceed $135,000,000, approving a Notice of Intention to Sell, authorizing the distribution of an Official Notice Inviting Bids and an Official Statement in connection with the offering and sale of such Notes and authorizing the execution of necessary documents and related actions; and B. That the Orange County Sanitation District Financing Corporation approve the documents, supporting and authorizing the Notes in an aggregate amount not to exceed $135,000,000. SUMMARY In March 2006, the Sanitation District issued $200 million of variable rate Certificates of Participation (COP), Series 2006 (2006 COPS). Altematively, the Sanitation District could have issued debt at an estimated cost of 4.54% on a fixed rate basis in 2006. From inception through August 2008, the average variable rate on the 2006 COPs was 2.95% or 0.22% less than the SIFMA index (weekly market index of tax-exempt variable rate obligations). As the global financial crisis took hold in the late summer of 2008, there was a significant increase in the variable rate borrowing cost of the Sanitation District, including all municipal borrowers, as the 2006 COPS averaged 4.29% (or 1.56% above the SIFMA index) for the period between September 2008 and December 2008. The amount of the increase in variable rate cost above the SIFMA index can be attributed to the weakened financial strength of the bank, DEPFA Bank plc that was providing liquidity support on the 2006 COPs. Page 1 of 5 In December 2008, the Sanitation District proactively refunded the 2006 COPS with the Refunding COP Series 2008C Certificate Anticipation Notes (2008C CANS)to reduce its exposure to then higher and more volatile variable rate costs. The yield on the 2008C CANS was 0.98% for a one-year period. The issuance of the 2008C CANS allowed the Sanitation District to redeem the 2006 COPs at an all-in cost of less than 1.25% and avoid paying a bank rate of 4.75% which would have been effective starting a month later. Since the 2008C CANs issuance, the Sanitation District completed four additional one-year refinancings at yields of less than 0.37% as summarized below: All-In Cost 2009E $ 165,865,000 0.370% 0.559% 20106 154,665,000 0.360 0.525 2011E 143,205,000 1 0.225 0.399 2012C 131,700,000 1 0.210 0.410 The interest rate on the Revenue Refunding Certificate Anticipation Notes Series 2012C (2012C CANS) was fixed for only one year and the entire $131.7 million plus interest becomes due and payable on October 30, 2013. The purpose of the financing is to refund all of the $131.7 million Revenue Refunding Certificate Anticipation Notes, Series 2012C to avoid the use of the Sanitation District's cash reserves to make repayment. The financing is structured as new one-year fixed rate maturity that will be sold in a competitive sale. PRIOR COMMITTEE/BOARD ACTIONS July 2013 — The Board authorized the General Manager to issue Revenue Refunding Certificate Anticipation Notes, Series 2013A, as one-year fixed rate obligations, in an amount not to exceed $135.0 million to replace the $131.7 million Revenue Refunding Certificate Anticipation Notes, Series 2012C maturing on October 30, 2013. September 2012 — The Board adopted Resolution No. OCSD 12-12, authorizing the execution and delivery by the Sanitation District of an Installment Purchase Agreement, a Trust Agreement and a Continuing Disclosure Agreement in connection with the execution and delivery of Orange County Sanitation District Revenue Refunding Certificate Anticipation Notes, Series 2012C, authorizing the execution and delivery of such Notes evidencing principal in an aggregate amount of not to exceed $145,000,000, approving a Notice of Intention to Sell, authorizing the distribution of an Official Notice Inviting Bids and an Official Statement in connection with the offering and sale of such Notes and authorizing the execution of necessary documents and related actions. Page 2 of 5 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION The Sanitation District currently has ten series of debt issuances outstanding in the par amount of $1.245 billion. The following table lists each issuance, the outstanding amount, and the interest rate mode.

(5) New money debt issue (6) Series 2008B refunded the Series 1993 Synthetic Variable-to-Fixed Rate Debt issue that was supported by a failing insurance provider. The Series 1993 refunded the Series 1986 and a portion of the Series"B"COPs. Due to the fact that this is a fixed-rate debt issuance, staff is proposing to issue the refunding through a competitive sale because it is the most expeditious way to access the market and it is expected to provide the lowest interest cost for this given structure. All costs involved with the refunding, including costs for PRAG and Fulbright & Jaworski LLP will be paid from the proceeds of the new refunding issue. Legal Authorization and ADorovals The Board of Directors and the Financing Corporation will each be required to adopt separate Resolutions to complete this refunding. Drafts of these two Resolutions are available for review on the Sanitation District's webpage, as describe in the "Attachments" section below. A Financing Corporation is required by the structure of the Notes and was formed in April 2000 solely to satisfy this need. The Board of Directors of the Corporation is the same as the Board of Directors of the Sanitation District and the Corporation meets after an adjournment of the OCSD Board. Page 3 of 5 The OCSD Resolution authorizes the execution and delivery of certain legal documents and the execution and delivery of Revenue Refunding Certificate Anticipation Notes, Series 2013A, evidencing principal in an aggregate amount of not to exceed $135,000,000 all as spelled out in the title as follows: "A RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE ORANGE COUNTY SANITATION DISTRICT AUTHORIZING THE EXECUTION AND DELIVERY BY THE DISTRICT OF AN INSTALLMENT PURCHASE AGREEMENT, A TRUST AGREEMENT AND A CONTINUING DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT IN CONNECTION WITH THE EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF ORANGE COUNTY SANITATION DISTRICT REVENUE REFUNDING CERTIFICATE ANTICIPATION NOTES, SERIES 2013A, SUCH NOTES EVIDENCING PRINCIPAL IN AN AGGREGATE AMOUNT OF NOT TO EXCEED $135,000,000, APPROVING A NOTICE OF INTENTION TO SELL, AUTHORIZING THE DISTRIBUTION OF AN OFFICIAL NOTICE INVITING BIDS AND AN OFFICIAL STATEMENT IN CONNECTION WITH THE OFFERING AND SALE OF SUCH NOTES AND AUTHORIZING THE EXECUTION OF OTHER NECESSARY DOCUMENTS AND RELATED ACTIONS." The Resolution of the Corporation is somewhat shorter and simpler. It authorizes three actions that are similarly enumerated in the title as follows: "A RESOLUTION OF THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF THE ORANGE COUNTY SANITATION DISTRICT FINANCING CORPORATION AUTHORIZING THE EXECUTION AND DELIVERY BY THE CORPORATION OF AN INSTALLMENT PURCHASE AGREEMENT AND A TRUST AGREEMENT IN CONNECTION WITH THE EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF ORANGE COUNTY SANITATION DISTRICT REVENUE REFUNDING CERTIFICATE ANTICIPATION NOTES, SERIES 2013A, AUTHORIZING THE EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF SUCH NOTES EVIDENCING PRINCIPAL IN AN AGGREGATE AMOUNT OF NOT TO EXCEED $135,000,000 AND AUTHORIZING THE EXECUTION OF OTHER NECESSARY DOCUMENTS AND RELATED ACTIONS."

The issuance of the Future Obligations will require future authorizations by the governing boards of the District and the Corporation, as well as the preparation of suitable legal and disclosure documents for the issue. The District is currently unaware of any material impediment to obtaining such authorizations and documents. In addition, the issuance and sale of the Future Obligations will be contingent on the District's ability to access the municipal capital markets, which will depend on the District's creditworthiness and market conditions during the weeks immediately preceding the Maturity Date. The District is unable to predict such matters with certainty and therefore cannot guarantee that the Future Obligations will be successfully issued and sold. Installment Payment The Notes evidence direct, fractional undivided interests in the Installment Payment, and the interest thereon, paid by the District pursuant to the Installment Purchase Agreement. The obligation of the District to pay the Installment Payment and the interest thereon and other payments required to be made by it under the Installment Purchase Agreement is a special obligation of the District payable,in the manner provided under the Installment Purchase Agreement, from Net Revenues and other lawfully 52%6807.6 5 available funds of the District, as provided in the Installment Purchase Agreement. Net Revenues generally consist of all income and revenue received by the District from the operation or ownership of the Wastewater System remaining after payment of Maintenance and Operation Costs, all as further provided in the Master Agreement. See"DISTRICT REVENUES"herein. Pursuant to the Master Agreement, the District has established and declared the conditions and terms upon which obligations such as the Installment Purchase Agreement, and the Installment Payment and the interest thereon payable under the Installment Purchase Agreement, will be incurred and secured The obligation of the District to make the Installment Payment, and payments of interest thereon, and other payments required to be made by it under the Installment Purchase Agreement, from Net Revenues, and other lawfully available funds of the District,is absolute and unconditional,and until such time as the Installment Payment, payments of interest thereon, and such other payments shall have been paid in full (or provision for the payment thereof shall have been made pursuant to the Installment Purchase Agreement), the District has covenanted that it will not discontinue or suspend any Installment Payment when due, whether or not the Project or any part thereof is operating or operable or has been completed, or its use is suspended, interfered with, reduced or curtailed or terminated in whole or in part, and such Installment Payment, payments of interest thereon, and other payments shall not be subject to reduction whether offset or otherwise and shall not be conditional upon the performance or nonperformance by any party of any agreement or any cause whatsoever. The District's obligation to make the Installment Payment from Net Revenues is on a parity with the District's obligation to make payments with respect to its Outstanding Senior Obligations. See "Net Revenues" below. Pursuant to the Trust Agreement, the Corporation has assigned to the Trustee for the benefit of the Owners of the Notes substantially all of its rights, title and interest in and to the Installment Purchase Agreement, including its right to receive the Installment Payment and the interest thereon. The District has certain Existing Senior Obligations Outstanding payable from Net Revenues on a parity with the Installment Payment under the Installment Purchase Agreement. The tern "Existing Senior Obligations" as used in this Official Statement refers to the Installment Purchase Agreements relating to the District's Outstanding Senior Obligations, as set forth on Table 16 under the caption "FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS—Existing Indebtedness"herein. The term"Senior Obligations"mused in this Official Statement refers to the Existing Senior Obligations and to any additional Senior Obligations, such as the Installment Purchase Agreement, that may be made payable on a parity basis to the Installment Payment as provided in the Master Agreement. Senior Obligations, together with any Subordinate Obligations payable on a subordinate basis to the Installment Payments incurred as provided in the Master Agreement, are referred to collectively as the "Obligations." The District has no Subordinate Obligations currently outstanding. See "FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS — Existing Indebtedness" herein and APPENDIX C "SUMMARY OF PRINCIPAL LEGAL DOCUMENTS Master Agreement"attached hereto. The obligation of the District to pay the Installment Payment, and the interest thereon, and other payments required to be made by it under the Installment Purchase Agreement and Master Agreement, is a special obligation of the District payable, in the manner provided in the Installment Purchase Agreement, from Net Revenues and other lawfully available £ands of the District, as provided for in the Installment Purchase Agreement, and does not constitute a debt of the District, the State or of any political subdivision thereof, in contravention of any constitutional or statutory debt limitation or restriction. Neither the faith and credit nor the taxing power of the District, the State or any political subdivision thereof, is pledged to the payment of the Installment Payment or the interest thereon,or other payments required to be made under the Installment Purchase Agreement. The Installment Purchase Agreement constitutes a Senior Obligation and, as such, is subject to the provisions of the Master Agreement and is afforded all of the advantages, benefits, interests and security afforded Senior 52906807.6 6 Obligations pursuant to the Master Agreement. See"SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE NOTES"herein. Available Funds of the District As Senior Obligations under the Master Agreement, the Installment Payments are payable from and secured by a pledge of Net Revenues. Should Net Revenues prove insufficient, the Installment Purchase Agreement further provides that the Installment Payments are payable from any other lawfully available funds of the District. The primary lawfully available funds of the District are its reserve funds, other than trustee-held amounts required to be in any Obligation Reserve Fund securing certain of the District's Senior Obligations, as described in the Master Agreement. At June 30, 2013, the District's Debt Service Required Reserves totaled $135 million, of which $45.2 million were trustee-held amounts in Obligation Reserve Funds as required under the Master Agreement. See APPENDIX C—"SUMMARY OF PRINCIPAL LEGAL DOCUMENTS — Master Agreement" attached hereto. District reserve funds are maintained in accordance with the District's reserve policy. See "DISTRICT REVENUES — Reserves." Available reserves at June 30, 2012 and June 30, 2013 were approximately$608 million and $646 million (unaudited), respectively. See "DISTRICT REVENUES — Reserves," "— Summary of Operating Data"and"—Projected Operating Data." Net Revenues The District is obligated to make the Installment Payment from, among other things, Net Revenues as provided in the Master Agreement, which consist of Revenues remaining after payment of costs paid by the District for maintaining and operating the Wastewater System ("Maintenance and Operation Costs"). Revenues are defined in the Master Agreement to mean, for any period, all income and revenue received by the District during such period from the operation or ownership of the Wastewater System, determined in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, including all fees and charges received during such period for the services of the Wastewater System, investment income received during such period (but only to the extent that such investment income is generally available to pay costs with respect to the Wastewater System, including Maintenance and Operation Costs), Net Proceeds of business interruption insurance received during such period, ad valorem taxes received during such period, payments under the Agreement Acquiring Ownership Interests, Assigning Rights and Establishing Obligations, entered into on February 13, 1986, and amendment No. 1 thereto dated December 10, 1986 (the "IRWD Agreement'), by and between predecessor County Sanitation District No. 14 of Orange County and the Irvine Ranch Water District(the"IRWD")received during such period and all other money received during such period howsoever derived by the District from the operation or ownership of the Wastewater System or arising from the Wastewater System(including any standby or availability charges), but excluding (a)Capital Facilities Capacity Charges, (b)payments received under Financial Contracts, and(c)refundable deposits made to establish credit and advances or contributions in aid of construction (which, for purposes of the Master Agreement, shall not include payments under the IRWD Agreement); provided, however, that (i)Revenues shall be increased by the amounts, if any, transferred during such period from the Rate Stabilization Account to the Revenue Account and shall be decreased by the amounts, if any,transferred during such period from the Revenue Account to the Rate Stabilization Account, and (ii)Revenues shall include Capital Facilities Capacity Charges collected during such period to the extent that such Capital Facilities Capacity Charges could be properly expended on a Capital Facilities Capacity Charge Eligible Project for which the proceeds of Senior Obligations were used or are available to be used. Any Federal Subsidy payments received by the District will constitute Revenues as defined in the Master Agreement. See "DISTRICT REVENUES — Additional Revenues"herein. 52906900.6 7 The District's obligation to make the Installment Payment from its Net Revenues is on a parity with the District's obligation to make payments with respect to its other outstanding obligations described as Senior Obligations and all Reimbursement Obligations with respect to Senior Obligations,as provided in the Master Agreement. The Installment Purchase Agreement constitutes a Senior Obligation and, as such, is subject to the provisions of the Master Agreement and is afforded all of the advantages, benefits, interests and security afforded Senior Obligations pursuant to the Master Agreement. Pursuant to the Master Agreement, the District pledges all Net Revenues to the payment of the Senior Obligations and Reimbursement Obligations with respect to Senior Obligations, and the Net Revenues will not be used for any other purpose while any of the Senior Obligations or Reimbursement Obligations with respect to Senior Obligations remain unpaid; provided, however, that out of the Net Revenues there may be apportioned such sums for such purposes as are expressly permitted by the Master Agreement. This pledge constitutes a first lien on the Net Revenues for the payment of the Senior Obligations and Reimbursement Obligations with respect to Senior Obligations. The term"Senior Obligations,"generally means all revenue bonds or notes(including bond anticipation notes and commercial paper)of the District authorized, issued,executed and delivered under and pursuant to applicable law,the Installment Purchase Agreement, and all other contracts (including financial contracts) or leases of the District authorized and executed by the District under and pursuant to applicable law, including, without limitation, installment, lease or other payments which are, in accordance with the provisions of the Master Agreement, payable from Net Revenues on a parity with the payments under the Master Agreement. The District may at any time incur Subordinate Obligations payable on a subordinate basis to the Installment Payment as provided in the Master Agreement; provided, however, that prior to incurring such Subordinate Obligations, the District shall have determined that the incurrence thereof will not materially adversely affect the District's ability to comply with the requirements of the Master Agreement. The District may at any time incur Reimbursement Obligations with respect to Subordinate Obligations. For a description of the District's Outstanding Senior Obligations and Subordinate Obligations, see "FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS Existing Indebtedness" herein. There are currently no Subordinate Obligations or Reimbursement Obligations with respect to Subordinate Obligations outstanding. The District may, in connection with the incurrence of Subordinate Obligations, pledge Net Revenues to the payment of Subordinate Obligations and Reimbursement Obligations with respect to Subordinate Obligations; provided, however, that such pledge, and any lien created thereby, shall be junior and subordinate to the pledge of, and lien on,Net Revenues for the payment of Senior Obligations and Reimbursement Obligations with respect to Senior Obligations. Rate Stabilization Account To avoid fluctuations in its fees and charges of the Wastewater System, from time to time the District may deposit in the Rate Stabilization Account from Net Revenues such amounts as the District deems necessary or appropriate. From time to time, the District may also transfer moneys from the Rate Stabilization Account to the Revenue Account to be used by the District, first to pay all Maintenance and Operations Costs as and when the same shall be due and payable. In addition, any such amount transferred from the Rate Stabilization Account to the Revenue Account by the District is included as Revenues for any period,but such transferred amount is excluded from determining Operating Revenues for any period. Revenues will be decreased by the amounts,if any,transferred from the Revenue Account to the Rate Stabilization Account. There are presently no funds in the Rate Stabilization Account. 52906807.6 8 Allocation of Revenues To carry out and effectuate the pledge of Net Revenues under the Master Agreement as described above, the District agrees and covenants that all Operating Revenues received by the District will be deposited when and as received in the Revenue Account. Additionally, amounts may, from time to time as the District deems necessary or appropriate, be transferred from the Rate Stabilization Account and deposited in the Revenue Account, as described above under" Rate Stabilization Account"above. The District will pay from the Revenue Account all Maintenance and Operations Costs (including amounts reasonably required to be set aside in contingency reserves for Maintenance and Operations Costs, the payment of which is not immediately required)as and when the same shall be due and payable. After having paid, or having made provisions for the payment of, Maintenance and Operations Costs, the District shall set aside and deposit or transfer, as the case may be, from the Revenue Account such amounts at such times as provided in the Master Agreement in the following order of priority: (1) Senior Obligation Payment Account; (2) Senior Obligation Reserve Funds(the Notes are not secured by any Reserve Fund); (3) Subordinate Obligation Payment Account; (4) Subordinate Obligation Reserve Funds; and (5) Rate Stabilization Account. Amounts required or permitted to be deposited or transferred as described in items 2, 3, 4 and 5 above, shall not be so deposited or transferred unless the District shall have determined that there will be sufficient Net Revenues available to make the required deposits or transfers on the dates on which such deposits or transfers are required to be made as described above. So long as the District has determined that Net Revenues will be sufficient to make all of the deposits or transfers required to be made pursuant to items 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 above, on the dates on which such deposits or transfers are required to be made, Net Revenues on deposit in the Revenue Account may from time to time be used for any purpose for which the District funds may be legally applied. For additional information, see APPENDIX C — "SUMMARY OF PRINCIPAL LEGAL DOCUMENTS Master Agreement." Rate Covenant Pursuant to the Master Agreement,the District will,to the extent permitted by law, fix,prescribe and collect fees and charges for the services of the Wastewater System which will be at least sufficient to yield during each Fiscal Year (a)Net Revenues equal to 125% of Debt Service on Senior Obligations for such Fiscal Year and (b)Net Operating Revenues equal to 100% of Debt Service on all Obligations for such Fiscal Year. The District may make adjustments from time to time in such fees and charges and may make such classification thereof as it deems necessary, but will not reduce the fees and charges then in effect unless the Revenues and Net Revenues from such reduced fees and charges will at all times be sufficient to meet the requirements of the Master Agreement. In addition, the District has covenanted in the Master Agreement to prepare and adopt an annual budget for the Wastewater System for each Fiscal Year. Such budget will set forth in reasonable detail the Revenues anticipated to be derived in such Fiscal Year and the expenditures anticipated to be paid or provided for therefrom in such Fiscal Year, including,without limitation, the amounts required to pay or provide for the payment of the Obligations during such Fiscal Year, the amounts required to pay or 52906807.6 9 provide for the payment of Maintenance and Operations Costs during such Fiscal Year and the amounts required to pay or provide for the payment of all other claims or obligations required to be paid from Revenues in such Fiscal You,and will show that Revenues and Net Revenues will be at least sufficient to satisfy the requirements of the Master Agreement. On or before September 1 of each Fiscal Year, the District will file with the Trustee a copy of the adopted budget for such Fiscal Year. See APPENDIX C "SUMMARY OF PRINCIPAL LEGAL DOCUMENTS Master Agreement" for additional information. The District has an established reserve policy with eight separate reserve fund categories. Over the next ten years,the year ending reserve total for each year is projected not to fall below$500 million as indicated in the District's ten-year cash flow forecast for fiscal years 2013-14 through 2022-23. At its election, the District may use unrestricted reserves to help satisfy the rate covenant described above. See "DISTRICT REVENUES Reserves"herein.

The District is the sixth largest wastewater discharger in the United States. The District provides service to an area with a population of approximately 2.5 million people in the northern and central portion of the County by treating an average of 200 mg/d of wastewater in Fiscal Year 2012-13. The District serves approximately 81% of the County population in approximately 479 square miles,or approximately 60%of the County's area. The service area which comprises the District was originally formed in 1954 pursuant to the County Sanitation District Act, as amended, Section 4700 et seq. of the Health and Safety Code of the State. The District's service area originally consisted of seven independent special districts in the County which were each responsible for matters relating to their individual districts. These special districts were jointly responsible for the treatment and disposal facilities which they each used. The seven independent districts were successors to the Joint Outfall Sewer Organization, which was formed in 1923 among the Cities of Anaheim, Santa Ana,Fullerton, and Orange, and the sanitary districts of Placentia, Buena Park, La Habra, and Garden Grove. The Joint Outfall Sewer Organization constructed a treatment plant and outfall in the early 1920s to serve its members. It was reorganized in 1947 and 1948 into seven county sanitation districts — District Nos. 1, 2, 3, 5, 6, 7 and 11. These prior districts were formed based on engineers' analyses of the gravity flows in the service area. District No. 13 was formed in 1985 and District No. 14 was added in 1986. These districts were co-participants in a Joint Agreement which provided for the joint construction,ownership,and operation of the prior districts'joint facilities. In April 1998, at the request of the Board of Directors of the District (the"Board of Directors'), the Board of Supervisors of the County of Orange (the "County Board") passed Resolution No. 98-140 approving the consolidation of the then existing nine special districts into a new, single sanitation district, to be known as the Orange County Sanitation District. This action was designed to simplify governance stmctmes, reduce the size of the Board of Directors, ease administrative processes, streamline decision- making and consolidate accounting and auditing processes. The consolidation was effective on July 1, 1998. Pursuant to the Resolution and Government Code Section 57500, the prior districts transferred and assigned all of their powers, rights, duties, obligations, functions and properties to the District, and the District assumed all obligations of the prior districts which were several and not joint including, without limitation, their obligations to repay the then outstanding certificates of participation. The boundaries of the nine predecessor special districts were initially used by the District to delineate separate revenue areas (the"Revenue Areas") for budgeting and accounting purposes and in order to facilitate the imposition of fees and charges imposed by the District. See "DISTRICT REVENUES — Sewer Service Charges"herein. The District is managed by the Board of Directors, whose members are appointed by 25 member cities and agencies which are serviced by the District. The District is responsible for construction and maintenance of a major portion of the wastewater collection, treatment and disposal facilities within its boundaries. Revenue Area No. 7 is responsible for approximately 170 miles of local sewers in its service area, whereas local sanitary districts, water districts and cities are responsible for local sewers in the remainder of the District's service area. 52906807.6 14 Return to Mende Report Organization and Administration The District is independent of and overlaps other political jurisdictions. There are many governmental entities, including the County, that operate within the District's jurisdiction. These entitles me exclusively responsible for the administration of their own fiscal affairs,and the District is not entitled to operating surpluses of, or responsible for operating deficits of,any of the other entities. The 25-member Board of Directors is composed of representatives from 21 cities,unincorporated areas of the County and three special districts, including mayors of cities, members of city councils, directors of independent special districts and one member from the County Board. Several board committees, made up of members of the Board of Directors, consider topics for action by the Board of Directors and make recommendations to the Board of Directors. The Chair and the Vice Chair of the Board of Directors are elected every year by a majority of the Board of Directors, and serve at the pleasure of the majority of the Board of Directors. The District has a general manager, outside general counsel, and administrative and operating staff, with offices located at Reclamation Plant No. 1 in Fountain Valley, California. The District currently employs an administrative and operating staff of approximately 600 under the direction of its General Manager,James Herberg.

Services The District owns and operates regional wastewater collection, treatment, and disposal facilities for the metropolitan area in the northern and central portion of the County. The District receives wastewater from the collection systems of the cities, sanitary districts and unincorporated areas of the County located within the District. See"THE THE DISTRICT—Service Areas"herein. Generally, local agency systems collect wastewater from residential and industrial customers and convey the wastewater to District trunk sewer pipelines for conveyance to the District's wastewater treatment plants. The District's staff is responsible for operating and maintaining the District's infrastructure, although some work is performed by external contractors. Currently, the District has established supply contracts for all chemicals necessary to the operation and maintenance of the facilities of the District. The District has sufficient standby systems in the event of equipment failures or system outages. Service Area The map on the inside cover of this Official Statement shows the District's boundaries and selected cities located within the District. District boundaries were originally established in 1947 and 1948 based on drainage basins. As the existing cities have grown and new areas have incorporated, city limits have come to overlap District boundaries. The District currently serves an approximately 479 square-mile area including 23 of the County's 33 cities and various unincorporated areas of the County. The District serves a population of approximately 2.5 million residents. 52906807.6 16 Return to Mende Report Set forth in Table 2 below is the estimated populations of cities and unincorporated areas served by the District as of January 1,2013.

Employees As of July 25, 2013, the District had a total of 597 employees. The majority of District employees are represented by recognized employee organizations, which include the following: the Orange County Employees Association("OCEA"),representing administrative/clerical,technical services and engineering employees since 1979, the International Union of Operating Engineers — Local 501 ("Local 501"), representing operations and maintenance employees since October 1985, and the Peace Officers Counsel of California representing employees within the Supervisor Group and Professional Group since 1991. The total number of represented employees is 545, and is broken down as follows: 101 employees represented by OCEA, 200 employees represented by Local 501, and 244 employees represented by the Supervisor Group and Professional Group. The contractual agreements between 52906807.6 17 District and the Supervisor Group and Professional Group were renegotiated in 2010 and expired on June 30, 2013. The District is continuing to bargain with the Supervisor Group and Professional Group to reach agreement. The contractual agreements between OCEA and District and the Local 501 and District were renegotiated in 2011 and will expire on June 30, 2014. Historically, the District has experienced positive and collaborative working relationships with each organization and has not endured any work stoppages since the early 1980s. Retirement Plan The District participates in the Orange County Employees Retirement System ("OCERS'), a cost-sharing multiple-employer defined benefit pension plan, which is governed and administered by a nine-member Board of Retirement. OCERS was established in 1945 under the provisions of the County Employees Retirement Law of 1937,and provides members with retirement,death,disability,and cost of- living benefits. All full-time and part-time District employees participate in OCERS. Contributions are based on an OCERS actuarial-determined rate structure and age at time of employment; contributions are deducted on a pre-tax basis. Most employees do not pay into Social Security with the exception of 1.45% of gross income, which is paid into the Medicare portion of Social Security. The amount of the retirement allowance is based upon the member's age at retirement,the member's"final compensation"as defined in Section 31462 of the Retirement Law of 1937, the total years of service under OCERS, and the employee's classification as a Plan B, G, H, or U member. Plan U applies to all full-time and part-time employees hired on or after January 1, 2013. Plan B applies to supervisor and professional employees hired on or after October 1, 2010, Local 501 employees hired on or after July 1, 2011 and OCEA employees hired on or after August 1, 2011. Plan G applies to employees hired before September 21, 1979. Plan H applies to employees hired on or after September 21, 1979 and prior to the eligibility dates for Plan B or Plan U. Plan G and H provide 2.5% of final compensation per year of service at age 55. Plan B provides 1.667%of final compensation per year of service at age 57.5, and Plan U provides 2%at 62. "Final compensation"is the highest consecutive 12 months of compensation for Plan G members and the highest consecutive 36 months of compensation divided by three for Plan B, H, and U members. Benefits fully vest under the OCERS retirement plan upon reaching five years of service. Employees who retire at or after age 50 with ten or more years of service are eligible to receive an annual retirement allowance, but at a reduced benefit for those employees retiring prior to age 62 for Plan U members, 57.5 for Plan B members, or prior to age 55 for Plan G and H members. OCERS also provides death and disability benefits. As a condition of participation under the provisions of the County Employees Retirement Law of 1937, members are required to contribute a percentage of their annual compensation to OCERS. The District contributes a percentage of covered employees' base salary towards the employee's contribution to OCERS for members of Plans G and H. Members of Plans U and B do not receive any contributions toward employee's contribution to OCERS. 52906807.6 18 Return b Mends Report Set forth in Table 13 below is a current comparison of the District's contributions to OCERS for Fiscal Years 2007-08 through 2012-13 and projected contributions for Fiscal Year 2013-14.

For Fiscal Years 2007-08 through 2012-13, the District's required contribution was equal to the contribution that the District actually made. As noted, the required contribution set forth above includes amortization of Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liability ("UAAL"). For the Fiscal Year ended June 30, 2013, total payroll costs of employees covered by OCERS was $59,966,096. As of the December 31, 2012 valuation, OCERS has an aggregate UAAL ratio of 62.52%, for a total UAAL on an actuarial basis of$5.68 billion. The District's retirement program includes Additional Retiree Benefit Account ("ARBA") benefits. ARBA benefits provide a monthly payment to retirees towards the premium costs of health insurance for the retiree and eligible dependents. The retiree is not required to use this amount for health insurance premium or to remain on the OCERS medical plan. Benefits vest upon retirement after qualifying public service of ten years. The District pays 100% of the cost for the ARBA plan and utilizes a pay-as-you-go method for funding the plan. The District paid$421,650 in ARBA benefits during Fiscal Year 2012-13. Effective August 1, 2011, ARBA benefits are no longer available to new OCEA Croup employees of the District. For more information regarding OCERS and the District's retirement plan as of June 30, 2012, see Note 6 to the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report of the Orange County Sanitation District for Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2012 set forth in Appendix A. The Comprehensive Annual Financial Reports of the Orange County Employees Retirement System are available on the OCERS website at http://www.ocers.org. The information on such wcbsite is not incorporated herein by such reference or otherwise. The District cannot predict whether the OCERS investment portfolio will experience additional losses in the future; however, any future losses could result in material increases in the District's required contributions. 52906907.E 19 Other Post-Employment Benefits In June 2004, Governmental Accounting Standards Board ("GASB") issued Statement No. 45, which requires state and local governmental employers to fund the actuarially determined annual required contribution("ARC")for its post-employment benefits other than pension benefits (known as other post- employment benefits or"OPEB") or record the entire amount of the unfunded liability of its OPEB in its financial statements. OPEB includes healthcare and life insurance expenses and related liabilities, and an annual required contribution to fund such liabilities. The District adopted Statement No. 45 for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2007, as required of a GASB "Phase 1 Agency." According to the District's actuary, Demsey Filliger Associates (the "Actuary"), the unfunded OPEB liability as of July 1, 2011 is approximately$10.7 million. The ARC is $900,035 for Fiscal Year 2012-13. Calculation of the ARC is based on the present value of benefits accruing in the current year,a 30-year amortization of the unfunded OPEB liability and an assumed rate of return on investments in the retiree fund of 5% per annum. The District does not believe that its OPEB liability will have a material impact on its operational results. Risk Management As of the date hereof, the District has in force basic all risk property and casualty insurance, including theft, fire, flood,terrorism and boiler and machinery losses at its plants and pump stations. The District is self-insured for portions of workers' compensation,property damage and general liability. The self-insurance portion of workers' compensation is $750,000 per person per occurrence with outside excess insurance coverage to the statutory limit. The self-insured portion for property damage covering fire and other disasters is $250,000 per occurrence with outside excess insurance coverage to $1 billion. The self-insured portion for property damage covering flood is $100,000 per occurrence with outside excess insurance coverage to $300 million. The District is self-insured for all property damage from the perils of earthquakes. See "DISTRICT REVENUES — Reserves." The District also maintains outside comprehensive boiler and machinery insurance, including business interruption insurance, with a $100 million limit with deductibles ranging from$25,000 to $350,000. The District is self-insured for general liability coverage up to $250,000 per occurrence (except that employment practice liability is $500,000), with excess general liability coverage up to$30 million. During the past five fiscal yews there have been no settlements in excess of covered amounts. Claims against the District are processed by outside claim administrators. The District believes that there are no unrecorded claims as of June 30, 2013 that would materially affect the financial position of the District. For more information regarding the District's insurance coverage as of June 30,2012, see Note 1 to the Comprehensive Annual Financial Report of the Orange County Sanitation District for Fiscal Year Ended June 30,2012 set forth in Appendix A. Existing Facilities The District's Wastewater System presently consists of two wastewater treatment plants, an influent metering and diversion structure, 15 off-plant pump stations, various interplant pipelines and connections, and the ocean outfall facilities. The District's Wastewater System includes approximately 403 miles of sewers within 11 trunk sewer systems, 170 miles of local sewers located within a portion of Revenue Area No. 7, two treatment plants, two discharge outfalls and two emergency weir outlets. The existing treatment plants have a rated primary treatment capacity of 372 mg/d,including standby capacity. Treatment Plant No. I ("Plant No. I") is located in the City of Fountain Valley, about four miles from the coast, adjacent to the Santa Ana River. Secondary treatment capabilities we provided by a 52906807.6 20 Return to Mende Report trickling filter plant and two conventional air activated sludge plants. Up to 105 mg/d of secondary treated effluent is conveyed to an Orange County Water District (the "OCWD") plant for tertiary treatment prior to reclamation and groundwater recharge. See "Groundwater Replenishment System" below. Treatment Plant No. 2("Plant No. 2")is located in the City of Huntington Beach, 1,500 feet from the ocean, at the mouth of the Santa Ana River. Secondary treatment capabilities are provided by a Pure Oxygen Activated Sludge plant and a Solids Contact Trickling Filter plant. The District employs several phases in the treatment of wastewater. The first phase,preliminary treatment,removes debris such as eggshells,sand and other non-biodegradable items. See also"Preferred Level of Treatment" and `Biosolids Management' below. In the next phase, primary treatment, wastewater is pumped to large settling basins. The liquids me separated from the remaining solids which settle or float as the wastewater passes through large settling basins called clarifiers. The settled solids me sent to solids treatment facilities. All of the wastewater received by the District is sent to secondary treatment for further processing. During secondary treatment, the wastewater is treated with naturally occurring bacteria to remove most of the remaining dissolved and suspended microscopic organic solids. The treated wastewater from both plants is mixed together at Plant No.2,where it is then pumped through the ocean outfall pipe that extends five miles offshore. Set forth in Table 4 below are the treatment plants' approximate treatment capacities. Table 4 Wastewater System Treatment Capacities (mg/d) 2012-13 Primary Secondary Actual Flows Treatment Canaciri Treatment Canaciri Plant No. 1 97 204 182 Plant No.2 103 168 150 Aggregate Treatment 200 3Z2 332 Source: Orange County Sanitation District. The District also has the capability to divert a portion of the influent flow from Plant No. 1 to Plant No. 2 through interplant connections. A portion of the flow destined for Plant No. 2 can also be diverted to Plant No. 1. Another interplant facility allows gas generated during solids treatment to be transported between Plant No. 1 and Plant No. 2 and allows digester gas (which is used as fuel for many of the facilities' engines) from one plant to be used at the other to balance the supply and demand,which results in efficient gas utilization. Permits,Licenses and Other Regulations The District is subject to laws, rules and permits issued by federal, state, regional and local regulatory bodies. The Wastewater System is subject to regulations imposed by the 1972 Clean Water Act, Public Law 92-500 (the "Clean Water Act"), the California Environmental Quality Act of 1970, as amended ("CEQA") and the Federal Clean Air Act. The regulatory requirements me primarily administered by the United States Environmental Protection Agency (the `EPA"), the California Air Resources Board, the Santa Ana Regional Water Quality Control Board ("RWQCB"), and the South Coast Air Quality Management District("AQMD"). Regulations of these agencies deal primarily with the quality of effluent which may be discharged from the treatment plants and air quality emissions. The 52906807.6 21 Clean Water Act directs the EPA to monitor and to regulate the discharge of pollution into navigable waterways and to enforce the requirements that all wastewater treatment plants in the nation provide full secondary treatment for sewage. In 1977, Congress amended the Clean Water Act to allow waivers of secondary treatment standards for certain ocean dischargers if they can demonstrate,to the satisfaction of the EPA that significant adverse environmental impacts would not occur. The District currently has all applicable permits and licenses necessary to operate its facilities. The District has discharged treated wastewater into the Pacific Ocean under a permit issued by the EPA and the RWQCB. The discharge permit included a waiver under the 301(h) provisions of the Clean Water Act, allowing for less than full secondary treatment based on an ocean discharge of sufficient depth, distance and dilution. The permit was initially issued in 1985 and was the first modified Section 301(h)permit issued to a major wastewater treatment facility. The permit was re-issued on May 6, 1998 and expired on June 8,2003. On July 17,2002,the Board of Directors adopted Resolution No. OCSD 02-14, "Establishing the Policy for Level of Treatment of Wastewater Discharged into the Ocean." This resolution established the District's policy to treat all wastewater discharges into the ocean to secondary treatment standards thereby providing for continued public safety, marine ecosystem protection, and water reclamation opportunities. To implement this policy, District staff was directed to immediately proceed with the planning, design, and implementation of treatment methods that will allow the District to meet Clean Water Act secondary treatment standards with the expressed purposes of eliminating the need for the permit waiver received under Section 301(h). The District completed these improvements by December 2012 at a total capital improvement cost of$537.8 million. Following the determination by the Board of Directors on July 2002 to implement full secondary standards, staff prepared the Secondary Treatment National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System ("NPDES") Permit Application that was required to be submitted to the regional office of the EPA and the RWQCB in December 2002. The NPDES Permit is separate and apart from the permit waiver received under Section 301(h), and once awarded would negate the need for a waiver. Achieving secondary treatment standards was originally projected to take nine years to complete, with completion expected in December 2012. Because ocean discharge permits are issued for only five years, and the EPA has no authority to waive the discharge limit requirements or grant a longer permit (except in accordance with Section 301(h)), the District decided to voluntarily seek a consent decree concurrently with the issuance of the new ocean discharge permit. This negotiated consent decree(the"Consent Decree") approves the schedule and decrees that no penalties will be imposed for discharges that exceed the secondary treatment limits during the period of construction. The Consent Decree was signed by the District, the EPA and the RWQCB and filed with the U.S. District Court on November 15, 2004. The Consent Decree contains the following seven milestones: • completion of a new$44.4 million Trickling Filter Facility at Plant No. 1; • completion of the design and advertising for construction of the New Activated Sludge System at Plant No. 1; • completion of the design and advertising for construction of Trickling Filters at Plant No.2; • completion of construction for the rehabilitation of Activated Sludge Plant at Plant No. 2; • completion of construction of Plant No.2's secondary treatment expansion; 52906807.6 22 Return b Aaenda Report • completion of construction of Plant No. 1's secondary treatment expansion;and • achieve fill compliance with the Code of Federal Regulations secondary treatment requirements. The District is in compliance with the Consent Decree and has successfully completed all of the seven milestones within the specified deadlines required by the Consent Decree. The District completed the final milestone on December 29,2012. The District is also subject to the requirements of the Federal Clean Air Act which mandates attainment with national ambient air quality standards for criteria pollutants (ozone, particulate matter, carbon monoxide, lead,nitrogen dioxide, and sulfur dioxide). Criteria air pollutants cause adverse effects on human health and environment. AQMD is the local air pollution control agency charged with implementing the Federal Clean Air Act In addition to criteria pollutants, AQMD also implements numerous federal and state requirements related to the toxic air pollutants which can cause cancer or other severe localized health effects. The State's Air Toxic Hot Spots Act, for example, requires facilities to conduct health risk assessments and notify the neighboring communities if the health risk exceeds the regulatory thresholds. Pursuant to AQMD's requirements, the District must obtain permits before sewage treatment improvement projects can be constructed and operated. Such permits are project specific and may contain conditions that govern design criteria, operating parameters, and emissions standards. Most of the District's treatment facilities are enclosed in order to capture and treat emissions to meet regulatory emissions standards and to minimize odor impact to the neighboring communities. The District's treatment plants are also subject to the requirements of Title V of the Federal Clean Air Act amendments. The Title V permit is a single air quality permit for a facility that consolidates and replaces all of the air permits for individual pieces of equipment previously issued by the local air quality district. The permit contains all of the applicable local, state,and federal requirements,including periodic self-certification of compliance and mandatory self-reporting of permit deviation. All Title V permit related reporting and documents submitted to the AQMD must be signed by the highest District official — in this case the General Manager. The Title V program also demands facilities to organize and conduct extensive training of the staff involved, including the field operation and maintenance staff. Another Title V important feature is a possibility of the public active participation and intervention in the cases of potential emission limits and monitoring violations. The District Title V permits did not receive any negative public responses or comments during the required public review period. The District received initial Title V permits for both treatment plants in January 2009.These Title V permits are issued for a five-year period. In anticipation of permit expiration in January 2014, the District recently submitted application packages for renewal of its Title V permits. 2009 Facilities Master Plan and Capital Improvement Program The District's 2009 Facilities Master Plan(the"Master Plan")was completed and adopted by the Board of Directors in December 2009 and has been updated from time to time. The Master Plan updated the planning processes set forth in the 1989 Master Plan, the 1999 Strategic Plan, and the 2002 Interim Strategic Plan Update. The Master Plan also incorporates and implements the levels of services defined by the District's Board of Directors that are included in the District's 2009 Five-Year Strategic Plan. The result is a plan that integrates research, facilities planning, water conservation and reclamation, sludge reuse, other wastewater programs and financial planning into a single unified approach. A key component of the Master Plan was the updating of flow projections and the collection system hydraulic szsocsm.e 23 modeling. A capital improvement program was developed to implement the required sewer capacity and rehabilitation improvements through the year 2030. The District also annually reviews and validates its current Capital Improvement Program ("CIP"). The District expects to meet future demands on the Wastewater System through the CIP. This program has been developed to satisfy anticipated regulatory requirements, increased population, anticipated rehabilitations and replacements, additional treatment requirements, conservation, energy and other resource savings considerations, odor control improvements, and air quality protection needs. Through Fiscal Year 2030-31,the District's current CIP is scheduled to accomplish: • Major rehabilitation of the existing headworks, primary treatment, secondary treatment, outfall pumping, and solids handling facilities at both treatment plants; • Replace and rehabilitate nine of the District's outlying pumping stations, and 26 trunk sewer improvement projects;and • Reduce fence line odor to levels that do not generate odor complaints. The 2013 CIP Validation Study resulted in revisions to the CIP. The CIP currently consists of 137 individual capital projects through Fiscal Year 2030-31 with remaining outlays of$1.8 billion. Over the next five years, the CIP contemplates average annual capital expenditures of$164 million based on the 2013 CIP Validation Study. Implementation of full secondary treatment standards was completed in December 2012. Set forth in Table 5 below is a summary of total estimated capital costs for the CIP for Fiscal Years 2012-13 through 2030-31. [update] Table 5 Capital Improvement Program—Estimated Capital Costs Fiscal Years 2012-13 through 2030-31 [update] Project Cost Collection System Capacity $ 167,629,000 Collection System Repair,Rehabilitation,Replacement 310,816,000 Treatment Plant Capacity 199,053,000 Additional Secondary Treatment 131,968,000 Improved Treatment 136,157,000 Treatment Plant Repair,Rehabilitation, Replacement 702,797,000 Support Facilities 121,390,000 Total Validated Capital Improvement Program 1-769-810-00 Spume: [2011-12]Budget Update,Orange County Sanitation District. The CIP included budgeted expenditures of$141.6 million in Fiscal Year 2013-14. There we currently 38 projects in the construction phase with proposed capital outlay spending in 2013-14. The two most significant projects in the construction phase are the Sludge Thickening Dewatering and Odor Control at Plant No. 1 and the Solids Thickening and Processing Upgrades at Plant No. 2 with projected current year expenditures of$27.3 million and$12.9 million,respectively. 52906807.6 24 Return to Mends Report Groundwater Replenishment System The District has taken a multi jurisdictional approach to planning for capital facilities because many of the methods for reducing or managing flows involve other jurisdictions. One such project is the Groundwater Replenishment System ("GWRS"). In March 2001, the District entered into an agreement with the OCWD to design and construct Phase 1 of the GWRS. The capital cost of this Phase was shared equally (50% shares) by each agency. The GWRS is a joint effort by the two agencies to provide reclaimed water for replenishment of the Orange County Groundwater Basin and to augment the seawater intrusion barrier. Phase I of the GWRS became operational in January of 2008 with an expected water production of 72,000 acre-feet per year once all secondary treatment facilities are online. In 2011,GWRS produced approximately 68,000 acre-feet. The Phase II expansion started construction in November 2011 to add approximately 33,000 acre-feet per year. The District expects the Phase B expansion to be completed in the fall of 2014. The Phase II expansion and all future phases will be funded solely by OCWD. The District has committed 168,000 acre-feet per year of secondary effluent to these future expanded operations. The District and OCWD amended then 2001 agreement in 2010 to provide OCWD with the first right of refusal of secondary treated water flows from the District's Fountain Valley-based Plant No. 1 for these future phases; however, no capital funding is anticipated or dedicated from the District for these future expansion phases. OCWD and the District have agreed to share equally in the cost of the Joint GWRS Microfiltmtion Backwash Redirection Project which will increase the quantity of water available during the early morning hours when the flows are low. This project will save the District operational costs in the form of reduced primary treatment chemical usage. Preferred Level of Treatment In July 2002, the Board of Directors approved a change from the existing level of treatment, a blend of 50% advanced primary and 50% secondary treated wastewater, to full secondary treatment standards. The District completed all of the necessary expansion projects to support full secondary treatment by December 2012. See "THE DISTRICT —Permits, Licenses and Other Regulations." On July 20, 2012, the District received a new NPDES permit, that reflects the full secondary treatment requirements. Biosolids Management The District recovers and treats nutrient-rich, organic matter to produce biosolids through the treatment of wastewater. Biosolids can be recycled through composting or fertilizing farm fields (non- food)(land application)or disposed in a landfill for methane gas recovery. By 2014,the District's biosolids tonnage is anticipated to peak at approximately 784 tons per day ("tpd")when new secondary treatment processes are fully operational, and then is projected to decline to approximately 520 tpd by 2017 when the IRWD's solids processing facilities and the District's biosolids centrifuges commence operations. The District's biosolids averaged of 753 tpd in Fiscal Year 2012-13, with an average cost per ton of$62.55 for managing at offsite locations, as described in the table below. The Fiscal Year 2013-14 budget for biosolids management is$17.94 million. In 2003, the District was the first agency in the nation to be certified by the National Biosolids Partnership for its biosolids program. Certification requires regular third-party audits and a robust internal management system based on the ISO 14001 Environmental Management System standard. Pursuant to its policy (updated in February 2013)under the program, the District is committed to a diverse biosolids 52906807.6 25 program to help ensure a sustainable, reliable, and economical program. The District has a diversified biosolids management portfolio,as set forth in the table below: Current tons per day Average cost Contract(Minimum tons managed per ton Contractor Location Product per day and ter ml (approximate) (June 2013) Synagro Kern County,CA Compost 250 tpd—10 years plus two 250 tpd $74.1 l five-year renewals,first renewal 12/27/16 Synagro La Paz County,AZ Compost 0 tpd—10 years plus two 70 tpd $62.04 five-year renewals,first renewal 12/27/16 Tule Ranch Yuma County,AZ Land 0 tpd—Four(5)years 350 tpd $54.50 application expires 12/31/2017 Orange Orange County,CA Local 0 tpd—One year with four 70 tpd $40.26 plus County Landfill one-year renewals expires transportation Waste& 07/28/14 Recycling The District's contractors provide back-up biosolids management options in Arizona that include compost, land application recycling, and landfill disposal. Together, these options have the additional available capacity to manage more than eight times the District's daily biosolids production to ensure sustainable, consistent,and reliable operations. The District anticipates issuing a request for proposals ("RFP') in 2016 in advance of the Synagro contract renewal. In fall 2013, District staff will recommend the Board of Directors adopt a biosolids Strategic Initiative for the District's Fiscal Year 2014-15 Strategic Plan. The Strategic Initiative would review potential biosolids management options in order to make recommendations for the RFP. The District's goal is to ensure the RFP aligns with existing market conditions and continues a sustainable,reliable,and economical biosolids management program that provides environmentally sound practices and meets the stringent federal, state,and local regulatory requirements. In fall 2012, the District signed an agreement with Orange County Waste & Recycling to use their landfill in San Juan Capistrano. The District awarded a one-year hauling contract for the landfill loads(up to 100 tpd)in July 2013 that contains 4 one-year renewals. Urban Runoff Recognizing that County beaches were being affected by pollution carried by urban runoff, the Board of Directors adopted a number of resolutions agreeing to accept dry weather urban runoff into the sewer system. In June 2002, Assembly Bill 1892 amended the District's charter to formally allow the diversion and management of dry weather urban runoff flows. Resolution No. 01-07, adopted March 28, 2001,declared that the District will initially waive fees and charges associated with authorized discharges of dry weather urban runoff to the sewer system until the total volume of all runoff discharges exceeds four million gallons per day ("MGD") calculated on a monthly average. For the first 12 years of the Urban Runoff Program,the average monthly flow averages remained less than the 4 MGD threshold thus avoiding user fee costs being assessed to the diversion permittees. In 2012, OCSD received a number of diversion proposals to deal with bacteria and selenium loading to the upper Newport Bay. The discharge from the additional proposed diversions combined with the existing diversion flows would eventually exceed the four MGD fee threshold. On June 12, 2013, the Board adopted Resolution No. 13-09 52906807.6 26 Return to Aaenda Report expanding the waiver of fees or charges on the treatment of dry weather urban runoff from four MGD to ten MGD. According to the Board, the change was necessary not only to protect the Comfy's coastal resources, but also to provide an economic benefit to the local economy by helping to keep am beaches open. There are currently 19 active urban runoff diversion structures, four owned and operated by the County, 11 owned and operated by the City of Huntington Beach, one owned and operated by the City of Newport Beach, two owned and operated by the IRWD, and one owned and operated by The Irvine Company. The Dry Weather Urban Runoff Program is administered by the Environmental Compliance Division which issues a discharge permit for each of the diversion structures. The permit functions as a control mechanism that specifically prohibits storm runoff and authorizes discharge only riming periods of dry weather. The permit also establishes specific discharge limits, constituent monitoring, and flow metering requirements. In addition, the District conducts quarterly sampling and analysis of the urban maoff discharges to ensure discharge limit compliance for the various regulated constituents. Since 1999, the District has treated a total of 7.0 billion gallons of dry-weather urban runoff that would otherwise have been discharged into the ocean with no treatment. From January 1, 2012 through December 31, 2012, the daily average urban runoff flow ranged between 0.003 and 2.69 MGD with a cumulative total diversion of 558 million gallons for this period. At the existing operations and maintenance cost of$1,440.42 per million gallons(2011-12 rate),the District's cost for treating the urban runoff discharge for this period is estimated at$803,753. Integrated Emergency Response Program In recognition of the potential damage which could occur in the event of a major earthquake, flood, or other disaster, the District implemented an Integrated Emergency Response Program (the "IERP") in 1979. The IERP is a two-volume plan which contains policies, plans and procedures preparing for, and responding to, emergencies. The District also analyzed disaster preparedness issues and policies within the Master Plan, and within a 1994 document titled Fault Rupture Hazard Investigation—Wastewater Treatment Plant No.2. The disaster preparedness plan included in the Master Plan reviewed two possible major earthquake scenarios: an 8.3 Richter magnitude ("M") earthquake on the souther San Andreas fault system and an M 7.0 earthquake on the Newport-Inglewood fault zone, which includes Plant No. 2. An M 8.3 earthquake on the southern San Andreas fault, while on the whole more destructive than the M 7.0 Newport-Inglewood fault, may result in less damage to the District's service area due to the distance of the fault from most of the service area. However, the Master Plan stated that damage front such a major earthquake on the San Andreas fault would be extensive. Also,the Master Plan indicated that an M 7.0 earthquake on the Newport-Inglewood fault within five miles of the District's sewerage facilities could cause major destruction to those facilities. The disaster preparedness plan in the Master Plan indicated that it would not be economically feasible to upgrade all of the existing sanitary sewerage facilities to survive an earthquake of this magnitude along the Newport-Inglewood fault. The IERP outlines the policies and employee actions to be taken before, during and after an earthquake, earthquake response guidelines and damage assessment procedures. The Master Plan analyzed the vulnerability of the sanitary sewerage facilities and operations of the District and planned a risk reduction program wherein the vulnerability of many of the District's sanitary sewerage facilities to an earthquake could be reduced by recommended retrofit construction measures. The Master Plan also recommended that designs of existing major structures which were constructed prior to development of current seismic design standards be reviewed and the structures strengthened,if necessary. 52906807.6 27 Since the Master Plan and the 1994 Report, the District has completed retrofitting where deemed appropriate. Pursuant to the Master Plan, all recent and future projects have been, and will be, designed to the same high earthquake code standards as set for other essential services, such as hospitals and fire stations. Many of the older buildings analyzed in the Master Plan have been replaced by structures built after 1989. The Army Corps of Engineers' "All-River Plan" has mitigated any future flooding of the Santa Ana River system and potential threats to the District's Wastewater System. Also, both Plant No. 1 and Plant No.2 are built to federal standards. The disaster preparedness plan in the Strategic Plan investigates the damage potential posed by coastal flooding, tsunamis (large ocean waves generated by seismic activity) and windstorms. No assurance can be given that any such events would not have a material adverse impact on the Wastewater System. The Strategic Plan also makes recommendations regarding fire protection of the Wastewater System. Most of the structures at Plant No. 1 and Plant No. 2 are constructed of fire-resistant materials. The IERP describes the procedures needed to respond to a possible disaster. For more information regarding emergency response policies,the disaster preparedness plan described in the Strategic Plan and the IERP can be reviewed at the District's office. Five-Year Strategic Planning In November 2007, the Board of Directors adopted a new comprehensive strategic plan to steer the District's efforts and engage the organization to envision service levels and operational needs for the next five years. The Strategic Plan has been updated annually to continue looking at a five-year horizon (each, a "Five-Year Plan"). Since 2007, approximately 79% percent of the strategic goals have been completed. Following a similar process used in prior years, the General Manager's Office initiated the planning effort with the Executive Management Team, then solicited input and ideas from managers and supervisors. In October 2012, the staff-generated ideas were presented at a workshop with the Board of Directors where the Board Members discussed and deliberated changes and additions to the plan. Driven by the District's Mission, Vision and Core Values, the 2012 Strategic Plan Update continues an aggressive effort by the District to meet the sanitation, health, and safety needs of the approximately 2.5 million people served while protecting the environment where we all live. As a result of the discussion at the October 2012,four new goals were added to the Strategic Plan,as follows: • Ensure a reliable and sustainable chemical supply using multiple vendor contracts to reduce the risk of supply disruption while benefiting from competitive pricing. • Develop a Business Continuity Plan that will define how the District will continue everyday business functions after an event that interrupts normal operations for an extended period of time. • Assess and revise the District's biosolids policy to reflect recent, developments, experiences, and circumstances concerning biosolids management. See "THE DISTRICT — Biosolids Management"herein. • Assess the performance of current odor control systems, validate the appropriate Levels of Service ("LOS"), align future odor improvements with asset management objectives, and update the Capital Improvement Plan for odor control to meet the LOS goals. 52906807.6 28 Return to Mende Report This Strategic Plan continues to chart a focused roadmap of success for the future of the District. It addresses critical operations and construction issues, financial and budgeting challenges, and gives a clear and concise direction to staff,ratepayers,regulatory agencies,and the general public. DISTRICT REVENUES Sewer Service Charges General. The District has the power to establish fees and charges for services of the Wastewater System. Such fees and charges are established by the District's Board of Directors and are not subject to review or approval by any other agencies. In Fiscal Year 1997-98, a Rate Advisory Committee (the "RAC") was established comprised of representatives from industrial, commercial and residential users. The goal of the RAC was to examine the then current rate structure and, if needed, develop recommendations for change. The RAC analyzed the District's rate structure to determine whether its then current sewer service user fees (now (mown as "Sewer Service Charges") were equitable among residential and industrial customers. This review resulted in a proposal to expand the number of non-residential user categories from one to 23 and to provide for gradual rate increases in seven of the nine Revenue Areas. The Sewer Service Charges for those categories were based on the average flow and strength of wastewater discharged for each property type and remain currently in use. The Board of Directors establishes the annual sanitary sewer service charges by ordinance. The sanitary sewer service charge ordinances are adopted by a two-thirds vote of the Board of Directors as required under law after conducting a noticed public hearing in compliance with Proposition 218. See "LIMITATIONS ON TAXES AND REVENUES — Article XIIIC and Article XIRD of the California Constitution." In May 2002,the Board of Directors adopted District Ordinance No. OCSD 18(the"2002 Ordinance") which became effective on July 1, 2002. The 2002 Ordinance included a single family residential ("SFR") rate increase, the underlying basis for all sanitary sewer service charges including sanitary sewer rates for multi-family residential units as well as most commercial and industrial properties, of $7.50 per year, or 9.4%, to $87.50 per year. In Jane 2003, the Board of Directors authorized a Proposition 218 notice on proposed"not to exceed"rate increases for each year over the next five years. The District collects Sewer Service Cbarges from property owners through the semi-annual property tax bill distributed by the County throughout the District, except in Revenue Area No. 14. Pursuant to the IRWD Agreement, the District receives quarterly fee payments from the IRWD which directly collects fees from customers through a monthly billing procedure in Revenue Area No. 14. The District currently participates in the County's Teeter Plan under which the District receives annually 100% of the secured property tax levies to which it otherwise is entitled, regardless of whether the County has actually collected the levies. The District has covenanted in the Master Agreement to fix, prescribe and collect fees and charges to satisfy certain coverage requirements as further described under "SECURITY AND SOURCES OF PAYMENT FOR THE NOTES—Rate Covenant"herein. Residential and Commercial Sewer Service Charges. Pursuant to the 2002 Ordinance, the District established residential Sewer Service Charges, except within Revenue Area No. 14, based on the cost of services and facilities provided to each customer of the District. The noticed public hearing held in connection with the 2002 Ordinance considered increases in the amount of the annual charges of 52906807.6 29 approximately 20% per year for each of the then following five years. In May 2005, the Board of Directors adopted Ordinance No. OCSD-26 increasing the Fiscal Year 2005-06 single family residential rate, the underlying basis for all sewer service charges, by 31%, from $115.00 to $151.00 for all ratepayers, except those located in Revenue Area No. 14. In June 2007, the Board of Directors adopted Ordinance No. OCSD-32 increasing the Fiscal Year 2007-08 single family residential rate by 9.8%. On February 27, 2008, the Board of Directors approved increases in its sanitary sewer service charges for all single family and multi-family residential units, and for all commercial properties. The Board of Directors increased the single family residential rate, which is the basis for all of the District's sewer service charges, by 10.4% for Fiscal Year 2008-09, 10.0% for Fiscal Year 2009-10, 10.4% for Fiscal Year 2010-11, 9.4% for Fiscal Year 2011-12 and 10.1% for Fiscal Year 2012-13. On March 27, 2013, the Board of Directors adopted Ordinance No. OCSD-41 approving increases in its sanitary sewer service charges for all single family residences, multi-family residential units, and all non-residential properties. The Board increased the single Family residential rate, which is the basis for all of the District's sewer service charges, by 4.8% for Fiscal Year 2013-14 and thereafter by an average annual increase of 2.40/6 for each Fiscal Year through Fiscal Year 2017-18. Set forth in Table 6 below is a comparison of the Sewer Service Charge rate for single family residences for the fiscal years shown. Table 6 Annual Sewer Service Charges Single Family Residence Rate Ten Year Rate Schedule Fiscal Years 2008-09 through 2017-18 Historical Projected Fiscal Sewer Service Fiscal Sewer Service Year Char ee Year Charee 2008-09 $201 2013-14 $308 2009-10 221 2014-15 316 2010-11 244 2015-16 323 2011-12 267 2016-17 331 2012-13 294 2017-18 339 Source: Orange County Sanitation District. Set forth in Table 7 below are the total average annual Sewer Service Charges for single family residences ("SFR") within the District, together with comparable total average annual charges for wastewater service within the jurisdictions of certain other cities and districts within the State as of the dates indicated. The District's projected SFR rate of$308 in Fiscal Year 2013-14 remains below the average annual sewer rate of $406 according to a Fiscal Year 2007-08 survey of 726 agencies encompassing all 58 counties in California conducted by the State Water Resources Control Board.

Source: Wastewater User Charge Survey Report by the Califomia State Water Resources Control Board. Industrial Sewer Service Charges. The District charges industrial Sewer Service Charges to customers discharging high-strength or high-volume wastes into the sewer systems. Customers subject to industrial Sewer Service Charges are billed directly by the District The fee charged to each customer is based on the customer's sewage volume, the concentration of suspended solids and biochemical oxygen demand. Pursuant to the 2002 Ordinance, rates for each component factor were revised for certain industrial users in order to be consistent with the rates charged to residential users. Total industrial Sewer Service Charges in Fiscal Year 2012-13 were approximately $11 million. Industrial Sewer Service Charges are applied to both operating and capital funds. The Sewer Service Charge increases described above are necessary to meet the District's cash flow needs arising from the addition of disinfection treatment and other operating requirements. As discussed under the caption "THE DISTRICT — 2009 Facilities Master Plan and Capital Improvement Program," the 2013 CIP Validation Study developed the capital improvement program to ensure secondary treatment standards are met as quickly as possible while providing for increased flows and rehabilitation and refurbishment of existing facilities. As projected through Fiscal Year 2030-31,the cash flow needs of the CIP total approximately $1.8 billion. Over the next five years the CIP contemplates average annual capital expenditures of$164 million. In addition, the CIP contemplates $212 million, or an annual average of$42 million, to finance projects currently unknown or unidentified as forecasted by the District's Asset Management Program(the"Asset Management Program"). 52906807.E 31 Additional Revenues The District has several sources of additional revenue, including property taxes, Capital Facilities Capacity Charges,capacity rights,permit and inspection fees and interest earnings. Property Taxes. The District receives approximately 2.5%of the one percent County ad valorem property tax levy, based on the allocation procedure under State law. Property tax revenues were $65.2 million in Fiscal Year 2007-08, $66.4 million in Fiscal Year 2008-09, $64.8 million in Fiscal Year 2009- 10, $64.3 million in Fiscal Year 2010-11, $67.9 million in Fiscal Year 2011-12 and $79.2 million (unaudited) in Fiscal Year 2012-13. Because of one-time redevelopment dissolution property tax proceeds received in Fiscal Year 2012-13, the District currently projects that its property tax receipts will decrease by approximately 6.9% in Fiscal Year 2013-14, but increase by approximately 5.0% each year thereafter through Fiscal Year 2017-18. The apportionment of the ad valorem tax is made pursuant to a revenue program adopted by the District in April 1979 to comply with EPA and RWQCB mandates, legal and contractual requirements and Board of Director's policy. Capital Facilities Capacity Charges. Capital Facilities Capacity Charges (commonly referred to as connection fees) are one-time fees with two components, paid at the time property is developed and connected to the Wastewater System. The fees are imposed by the District pursuant to Section 5471 of the California Health and Safety Code and are levied to pay a portion of the District's capital costs and for access to capacity in the Wastewater System. The District currently has Capital Facilities Capacity Charges of $3,341 per residential unit (three-bedroom); however, under the current industrial use ordinance, additional Capital Facilities Capacity Charges can be imposed on industrial users who place larger than average demand on the Wastewater System. Member cities and sanitary districts collect Capital Facilities Capacity Charges for the District when building permits are issued. Capital Facilities Capacity Charges are reviewed annually to reflect the changes in the value of the Wastewater System to which a new customer is connecting. On December 15, 1999, the Board of Directors approved District Ordinance No. OCSD 99-11 (the"1999 Ordinance")which established a comprehensive Capital Facilities Capacity Charge. The 1999 Ordinance, effective as of January 1, 2000, renamed connection fees as Capital Facilities Capacity Charges and provided a more equitable schedule of fees among industrial, commercial and residential users. Pursuant to the 1999 Ordinance,Capital Facilities Capacity Charges were revised for high demand industrial users in five incremental increases from 1999 through 2001. For a summary of historical and projected revenues derived from Capital Facilities Capacity Charges, see Table 14 and Table 15 below. Pursuant to an agreement with the IRWD, the IRWD is not required to pay Capital Facilities Capacity Charges and, in exchange, the IRWD provides funding to the District for the construction costs of certain wastewater collection, transmission, treatment and disposal facilities to be used by the IRWD and is obligated to make certain payments to the District for certain services arising from the Wastewater System(including any standby or availability charges). Sale of Capacity. The District has entered into agreements with the Santa Ana Watershed Project Authority ("SAWPA") whereby wastewater from Upper Santa Ana River Basin dischargers can be transported through the District's Santa Ana River Interceptor to the District's wastewater treatment facilities. This program was developed in the early 1970s. The agreements establish control mechanisms regarding the quality of wastes deposited into the Wastewater System. At the present time, SAWPA has purchased and paid for 30 mg/d of maximum regulated flow capacity rights in the District's Santa Ana River Interceptor and 17 mg/d of monthly average flow capacity in the District's wastewater treatment plants. Projected revenues from SAWPA range from$4.5 million to$5.3 million over the next five years. 52906807.6 32 Return to Mende Report Additional treatment plant capacity can be purchased in increments at the District's current replacement cost. Federal Subsidy Payments. In connection with the District's Revenue Obligations, Series 2010A (the "2010A Certificates") and the District's Revenue Obligations, Series 2010C (the "2010C Certificates"), issued as "Build America Bonds," the District expected to receive certain federal subsidy payments of approximately $5.1 million annually through 2031 and lesser amounts thereafter until 2044. Subsidy payments with respect to the 2010A Certificates and the 2010C Certificates constitute Revenues as defined in the Master Agreement. In its financial reports, the District accounts for subsidy payments received in connection with the 2010A Certificates and the 2010C Certificates as a reduction in interest expense with respect to such obligations. For the 2010A Certificates and the 2010C Certificates to be and remain Build America Bonds,the District must comply with certain covenants and establish certain facts and expectations with respect to the 2010A Certificates and the 20I0C Certificates , the use and investment of proceeds thereof and the use of property financed thereby. Thus, it is possible that the District may not receive the federal subsidy payments. The federal subsidy payments are also subject to offset against amounts that may, for unrelated reasons, be owed by the District to any agency of the United States of America. On March 1, 2013, the federal government announced the implementation of certain automatic spending cuts known as the sequester. As a result of the sequester, federal subsidy payments for the 2010A Certificates were reduced by 8.7% (or $67,874) and federal subsidy payments for the 2010C Certificates were reduced by 8.7% (or $152,807) for the federal fiscal year ending September 30, 2013. The District is obligated to make all payments with respect to the 2010A Certificates and the 2010C Certificates, however, from Revenues as defined in the Master Agreement, regardless of whether it receives the full amount of the federal subsidy payments. The District cannot predict any future reductions in federal subsidy payments due to the sequester. However, the District does not believe that any reduction in federal subsidy payments will have a material adverse effect on the District's ability to pay the 2010A Certificates or the 2010C Certificates. Wastewater Treatment History The wastewater flows for Fiscal Year 20OM9 through Fiscal Year 2012-13 were 211 mg/d, 196 mg/d, 207 mg/d, 201 mg/d and 200 mg/d, respectively. The highest flow rate experienced was during El Niiio storm periods. Peak flows of 500 mg/d were recorded in December 1997 and February 1998. There were no sewer failures or overflows during these events. Customers The historical number of customers served by the District for the Fiscal Years 2008-09 through 2012-13 and the projected number of customers served by the District for the Fiscal Years 2013-14 through 2017-18, identified in Equivalent Dwelling Units ("EDUs"), are set forth in Table 8 and Table 9 below. As discussed below, sewer service charges are based on the expected amount of wastewater flow for a single family dwelling. This base amount is considered the"equivalent dwelling unit." Set forth in Table 8 below are the EDUs that equate to total Sewer Service Charge levies,while the EDUs set forth in Table 9 equate to total sewer service charge collections. 52so6907.6 33 Table 8 Historical and Projected Equivalent Dwelling Units Fiscal Years 2008-09 through 2017-18 Historical Projected Fiscal Year EDUs([) Fiscal Year EDUs 2008-09 921,782 2013-14 929,430a1 2009-10 930,164 2014-15 932,033 2010-11 924,622 2015-16 934,736 2011-12 924,625 2016-17 937,493 2012-13 926,928 2017-18 940,306 With respect Fiscal Years, presentation in the Statistical Section of the Districts Comprehensive Annual Financial Report set forth in Appendix A includes EDUs that equate to total Sewer Service Charge collections rather than levies. n) EDUs projected in current budget as of June 2013.

Assessed Valuation The assessed valuation of property in the County is established by the County Assessor, except for public utility property which is assessed by the State Board of Equalization. Due to changes in assessment required under State Constitution Article XIIIA, the County assessment roll no longer purports to be proportional to market value. See "LIMITATIONS ON TAXES AND REVENUES" herein. Generally,property can be reappraised upward to market value only upon a change in ownership or completion of new construction. The assessed value of property that has not incurred a change of ownership or new construction must be adjusted annually to reflect inflation at a rate not to exceed 2 per year based on the State consumer price index. In the event of declining property value caused by substantial damage, destruction, economic or other factors, the assessed value most be reduced temporarily to reflect market value. For the definition of full cash value and more information on property tax limitations and adjustments, see"LIMITATIONS ON TAXES AND REVENUES"herein. The County Assessor determines and enrolls a value for each parcel of taxable real property in the County every yew. The value review may result in a reduction in value. Taxpayers in the County also may appeal the determination of the County Assessor with respect to the assessed value of their property. 52906907.E 35 Set forth in Table 11 below is a five-year history of assessed valuations in the District for the fiscal years shown.

Tax Levies and Delinquencies Property taxes are based on assessed valuation which is determined as described under "DISTRICT REVENUES—Assessed Valuation"herein. In accordance with the California Revenue and Taxation Code, the County tax collector collects secured tax levies for each Fiscal Year. Property taxes on the secured roll are due in two installments, on November 1 and February 1. The District currently participates in the County's Teeter Plan under which the District receives annually 100% of the secured property tax levies and Sewer Service Charges to which it otherwise is entitled,regardless of whether the County has actually collected the levies. This alternative method provides for funding each taxing entity included in the Teeter Plan with its total secured property taxes during the year the taxes are levied, including any amount uncollected at fiscal year-end. Under this plan, the District's general fund receives the full amount of secured property taxes levied each year on its behalf and, for so long as such plan remains in effect, the participating entities, such as the District, no longer experience delinquent taxes. The County's general fund is the designated recipient of future collections of penalties and interest on all delinquent taxes collected on behalf of participants in this alternative method of apportionment. In recent years, the County has experienced delinquencies of Sewer Service Charges in the District of approximately 2.0%. 52906807.6 36 Return b Mende Report Set forth in Table 12 below is a five-year history of the District's ad valorem total property tax and Sewer Service Charge levies.

Budgetary Process The District's operating fund budget relies on revenues from Sewer Service Charges and property taxes, both of which are collected on the property tax bill, as previously described under the captions '— Sewer Service Charges" and " Additional Revenues." The District receives tax revenues from the County in eight allocations, with the largest receipts in December and April. The District operates on a Fiscal Year beginning each July 1. The operating fund budgets include funds to cover the dry period of each tax year,i.e.,the period from the beginning of the Fiscal Year until the first taxes are received. The dry-period requirement is budgeted at one-half of the annual operating fund budgeted expenditures. The District uses the accrual method of accounting in its budgets. The District has conformed to its budgets for the last five fiscal years and is confornvng to its budget for the current fiscal year. The District's annual budget preparation process begins in January of each year and concludes in June upon its adoption. The General Manager reviews the final operating budgets and then distributes them to the Directors and District Committees for consideration. The Board of Directors then adopts the proposed annual budgets,with any revisions,in June of each year. Budgetary control is exercised at the individual Department level and administrative policies provide guidelines on budget transfers and the authorization necessary to implement transfers. A budget adjustment is a transfer which does not change the total appropriated amount and does not require Board of Directors action. Approval may be granted by the General Manager or the Department Head in certain circumstances. Department Heads have the discretion to reapportion funds between certain line items within a division but may not exceed total appropriated amounts for each department. They may also transfer staff across divisional lines. The General Manager and Board of Directors must approve additional capital outlay items. A budget amendment is an adjustment to the total appropriated amount which was not included in the original budget. These supplemental appropriations require formal action by the Board of Directors. Prior year reserves or fund balances may be appropriated to fund items not previously included in the adopted budget. Reserves or fund balances exceeding minimum amounts required by fiscal policies may be appropriated if it is determined to be in the best interest of the District. Directors may also appropriate reserves in case of emergencies or unusual circumstances. 52906807,6 37 Reserves The District has an established reserve policy with eight separate categories for its reserve funds. Collectively, these individual reserve requirements total over $500 million for each year of the current ten-year cash flow forecast. In Fiscal Year 2009-10, Financial Management staff and the Board of Directors concluded that given the nature of the likely events that may cause a withdrawal from the District's reserves and the degree of overlap among reserve categories,the total amount reserved need not equal the sum of each separate reserve category. As a result, the District adjusted the application of its reserve policy, leading to a reduction of$40 million of the accumulated total, or approximately 8 percent. Reserve levels are calculated in accordance with the District's reserve policy. Set forth in Table 13 below are the actual reserves at June 30, 2010, June 30, 2011 and June 30, 2012 and the District's unaudited reserves at June 30,2013,for each fund.

As of June 30, 2013, $135 million of Debt Service Required Reserves were held in Obligation Reserve Funds,of which$45.2 million is restricted by covenant for the specific obligations for which such Obligation Reserve Funds were established. Source: Orange County Sanitation District. 52906807.6 38 Return to Aaenda Report The District's reserves consist of the following components: • The Cash Flow Requirements Reserve was established to fund operation, maintenance and certificates of participation debt service expenses for the first half of the fiscal year, prior to the receipt of the first installment of the property tax allocation and sewer service user fees which are collected as a separate line item on the property tax bill. The level of this reserve is established as the sum of an amount equal to six months operations and maintenance expense and the total of certificates of participation debt service expenses due in the subsequent fiscal yea. • The Operating Contingencies Reserve was established to provide for non-recurring expenditures that were not anticipated when the annual budget and Sewer Service Charges were adopted. The level of this reserve is equal to 10%of the District's annual operating budget. • The Capital Improvement Program Reserve was established to fund annual increments of the Capital Improvement Program with a target level at one-half of the average annual Capital Improvement Program through the year 2020. Levels higher and lower than the target can be expected while the long-term financing and capital improvement programs me being finalized. • The Catastrophic Loss, or Self-Insurance Reserve is established for property damage including fire, flood and earthquake, general liability and workers' compensation. The level of reserve in this fund is maintained at a level to fund the District's non-reimbursed costs which are estimated to be$57 million. • The Capital Replacement and Refurbishment Reserve was established to provide 30% of the funding to replace or refurbish the current collection, treatment and disposal facilities. The current replacement value of these facilities is estimated to be approximately $6.26 billion. The initial reserve level for this fund was established at $50 million and is augmented by interest earnings and a portion of the annual Sewer Service Charges. • Debt Service Required Reserves include trustee-held amounts in any Obligation Reserve Fund and additional amounts held by the District for the payment of debt service in accordance with the District's reserve policy. The District's current policy is to maintain reserves (including trustee- held reserves) for debt service in the amount of 10% of the principal amount of the District's outstanding debt obligations. • The Rate Stabilization Reserve accumulates all available funds which exceed the targets for all other reserves. The Rate Stabilization Reserve is a separate fund from the Rate Stabilization Account established under the Trust Agreement. There is currently no established target for this reserve and, because the reserves of all other funds have not been exceeded,the reserve level for this reserve fund is zero for Fiscal Year 2013-14.

These projections assume the number of projects and scheduled build out set forth in the 2013 CIP Validation Study, and reflect the Board-approved rate increase of 4.8% in Fiscal Year 2013-14, and the average annual rate increases of 2.4% over the following four fiscal years. Principal expenditure components of these projections are derived from the 2013 CIP Validation Study, which identified 87 large capital projects and 50 special projects with a 20-year projected outlay of$1.8 billion. Much of the construction is scheduled during the next five years, with average annual capital outlays of $164 million. The District's CIP cash flow outlay for Fiscal Year 2012-13 was approximately $95.7 million. The District's CIP cash flow budget for Fiscal Year 2013-14 is $144.9 million. This CIP budget finances joint works treatment and disposal system improvement projects, and collection system improvement projects. The preparation of such projections was based upon certain assumptions and certain forecasts with respect to conditions that may occur in the future. while the District believes that these assumptions and forecasts we reasonable for the purposes of the projected selected operating data,it makes no representation that they will in fact occur. To the extent that actual future conditions differ from those assumed herein,the data will vary.

Source: Orange County Sanitation District. 52906807.6 42 Return to Mende Report Management's Discussion and Analysis of Operating Data The District's Fiscal Year 2013-14 total operating, capital improvement, debt service, and other financing requirement budget is $398.9 million, a 5.6 percent increase over the prior year budget of $377.8 million. The increase in the Fiscal Year 2013-14 budget is primarily due to the timing of the construction schedules on the implementation of CIP validated capital projects of$1.3 billion over the next ten years. The District's Fiscal Year 2013-14 budget includes $144.9 million in capital improvement outlays. With the completion of secondary treatment standards in December 2012,the District is focusing its efforts on the continued refinement of its asset management based engineering planning process. This process has been used to propose project modifications to more efficiently package projects for execution. As an example, four individual digester gas handling projects are proposed to be combined into a single coordinated project. The Fiscal Yew 2013-14 operations budget for the collection, treatment, and disposal of wastewater is $151.2 million, a decrease of$0.4 million, or less than one percent from the prior year budget of$151.6 million. Although individual expense categories will increase or decrease slightly, the overall decrease to the operating budget is primarily attributable to a decrease of$2.9 million, or 11.1 percent, in contractual services and a decrease of$1.6 million, or 8.3 percent, in operating materials and supplies that was mostly offset by the increase in personnel costs of$3.7 million, or 3.9 percent. The decrease in contractual services is primarily attributable to the termination of an agreement, estimated to cost the District approximately$3.4 million,with a company that had attempted to process biosolids into fuel pellets. The decrease in operating materials and supplies is primarily due to the decrease in odor control chemicals of$876,000 through optimization of these chemicals within the treatment plants and collection systems. The increase in personnel costs is primarily due to the increase in retirement premiums. Although staffing levels were decreased from the Fiscal Year 2012-13 approved full-time equivalent positions ("FTE") of 627.75 to 626.00, or a reduction of 1.75 FTE positions, employer retirement premium contributions are projected to increase by $2.1 million. This increase is predicated from the actuarial valuation completed on December 31, 2012 that requires greater employer premium contributions primarily because of underperforming returns on the retirement investment portfolio. In preparation of the Fiscal Year 2013-14 budget update, the second year of the previously approved biennium budget, District staff developed and reviewed with the Board of Directors a capital improvement program to deliver the levels of service included in the District's five-year strategic plan. These levels of services and associated capital projects are included in the District's Five-Year Strategic Plan. In addition, District staff validated the active CIP projects currently being executed to ensue that the scope of work on the active projects remains appropriate, and that the cost estimates have been accurately updated. The Fiscal Year 2013-14 CIP cash flow project budget was approved at $141.6 million; an increase of 5.8 percent from last year's approved cash flow of$133.9 million. This approved CIP outlay of$141.6 for Board of Director's approved projects coupled with approved outlays of$3.3 million deemed necessary from the Asset Management Program for rehabilitation, refurbishment, and replacement of yet to be determined specific projects comprise the total Board of Director's approved CIP outlays of 144.9 million for Fiscal Year 2013-14. The incorporation of the 2009 Facilities Master Plan (the "Master Plan") into the CIP includes the addition of 65 new CIP projects totaling $615.7 million through the year 2050. The 2013 validated CIP includes 87 large capital projects and 50 special projects with a 20-year expenditure of$1.8 billion. The completion of the CIP Validation Study in 2013 reaffirmed the need for rate increases in future years. Based on the results of the CIP Validation Study and the Five-Year Plan, the Board of Directors adopted Ordinance No. OCSD-41, increasing the sanitary sewer service charges by approximately 4.8 percent in Fiscal Year 2013-14, and by an annual average of 2.4 percent over the following four years. These rate increases were approved by a vote of two-thirds of the members of the 52906807.6 43 Board of Directors and are not subject to reaffirmation in any of the future fiscal years covered by this five-year period. This action increased the single family residence user rate, the basis for all sewer user fee rates, from $294 in Fiscal Year 2012-13 to $308 in Fiscal Year 2013-14. See "DISTRICT REVENUES—Sewer Service Charges." Investment of District Funds State statutes authorize the District to invest in obligations of the United States Government,state and local governmental agencies, negotiable certificates of deposits, bankers acceptances, commercial paper, reverse repurchase agreements and a variety of other investment instruments which are allowable under California Government Code Section 53600 et seq. All District funds, except for Obligation Reserve Funds controlled by a bank trustee pursuant to the provisions of Existing Senior Obligations, are managed by an external money manager, Pacific Investment Management Company. Mellon Trust serves as the District's independent custodian bank for its investment program. Callan Associates serves as the District's independent advisor. As of June 30, 2013, the District's externally managed fund consisted of a short-term investment portfolio of$71.0 million with an average maturity of 102 days, and a long-term investment portfolio of $441.4 million with average maturities of 3.0 years. Investments consist of United States government securities, corporate bonds and commercial paper. The District's portfolio contains no structured investment vehicles("SIVs")or reverse repurchase agreements. Deposits in banks are maintained in financial institutions which provide deposit protection on the bank balance from the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation. The California Government Code requires State banks and savings and loans to secure local government deposits by pledging government securities equal to 110% of the deposits or by pledging first trust deed mortgage notes equal to 150% of the deposits. The District's Investment Policy requires that the District invest public funds in a manner which ensures the safety and preservation of capital while meeting reasonable anticipated operating expenditure needs, achieving a reasonable rate of term and conforming to all state and local statutes governing the investment of public funds. The primary objectives, in order, of the District's investment activities are safety, liquidity and return on investment. FINANCIAL OBLIGATIONS Existing Indebtedness Currently, the District has Senior Obligations Outstanding payable on a parity with the Notes. The table below describes the District's outstanding parity certificates of participation as of October 1, 2013. The payment obligations in connection with each series of these certificates of participation constitute Senior Obligations, subject to the provisions of the Master Agreement and shall be afforded all of the benefits,interests and security afforded Senior Obligations pursuant to the Master Agreement. The District has no general obligation bonds or subordinate bonds outstanding. 52906807.6 44 Return to Mende Report Table 16 Outstanding Senior Obligations As of October 1,2013 Original Principal Issue Outstanding Final Amount Date Balance Maturi 2007A Certificates $ 95,180,000 05/22/07 $ 92,620,000 02/01/30 2007B Certificates 300,000,000 12/20/07 273,400,000 02/01/37 2008B Certificates 27,800,000 09/11/08 25,585,000 08/01/16 2009A Certificates 200,000,000 05/07/09 187,765,000 02/01/39 2010A Certificates 80,000,000 05/18/10 80,000,000 02/01/40 2010C Certificates 157,000,000 11/29/10 157,000,000 02/01/44 2011A Certificates 147,595,000 10/03/11 130,345,000 02/01/26 2012A Certificates 100,645,000 03/22/12 100,645,000 02/01/33 2012B Certificates 66,395,000 08/16/12 66,395,000 02/01/26 2012C Certificates 131,700,000 10/30/12 131,700,000 10/30/13to Total Senior Obligations 1306.315.000 1245A55.000 f t To be paid with the sale proceeds of the Notes and other sources of funds. See"PLAN OF FINANCE." In connection with the execution and delivery of the above-referenced outstanding certificates of participation, the District entered into certain installment purchase agreements, or equivalent documents, providing for the payment of installment payments or similar payments. Anticipated Financings From time to time the District may incur other obligations to finance portions of the CIP. Over the next ten years,however,the District does not expect to issue any additional debt, other than refunding debt. The District expects to refund outstanding obligations from time to time, such as the Prior Notes discussed in Table 16 above. Direct and Overlapping Bonded Debt The aggregate direct and overlapping bonded debt of the District as of Jane 30,2012 is set forth on page 54 of Appendix B. THE CORPORATION The Corporation was organized on June 19, 2000 as a nonprofit public benefit corporation pursuant to the Nonprofit Public Corporation law of the State. The Corporation's purpose is to render assistance to the District in its acquisition of equipment, real property and improvements on behalf of the District Under its articles of incorporation, the Corporation has all powers conferred upon nonprofit public benefit corporations by the laws of the State, provided that it will not engage in any activity other than that which is necessary or convenient for,or incidental to the purposes for which it was formed. The Corporation is a separate legal entity from the District. It is governed by a twenty-five member Board of Directors. The Corporation has no employees. All staff work is performed by employees of the District. The members of the Corporation's Board of Directors are the Board of Directors of the District. 52%6807.6 45 The District's Director of Finance and Administrative Services and other District employees are available to provide stall support to the Corporation. The Corporation has not entered into any material financing arrangements other than those referred to in this Official Statement. Further information concerning the Corporation may be obtained from the Orange County Sanitation District office at 10844 Ellis Avenue, Fountain Valley, California, 92708-7018. LIMITATIONS ON TAXES AND REVENUES Article XIIIA of the California Constitution On Jane 6, 1978, California voters approved Proposition 13 ("Proposition 13'), which added Article XIIIA to the State Constitution ("Article XIIIA ). Article XIIIA, as amended, limits the amount of any ad valorem tax on real property to one percent of the full cash value thereof, except that additional ad valorem taxes may be levied to pay debt service on (i)indebtedness approved by the voters prior to July 1, 1978,(ii)(as a result of an amendment to Article XIIIA approved by State voters on Jane 3, 1986) on bonded indebtedness for the acquisition or improvement of real property which has been approved on or after July 1, 1978 by two-third of the voters on such indebtedness, and (iii)bonded indebtedness incurred by a school district or community college district for the construction, reconstruction, rehabilitation or replacement of school facilities or the acquisition or lease of real property for school facilities, approved by 55% of the voters of the district, but only if certain accountability measures are included in the proposition. Article XIIIA defines full cash value to mean "the county assessor's valuation of real property as shown on the 1975-76 tax bill under "full cash value," or thereafter, the appraised value of real property when purchased, newly constructed, or a change in ownership has occurred after the 1975 assessment." The fall cash value may be adjusted annually to reflect inflation at a rate not to exceed 2%per year or to reflect a reduction in the consumer price index or comparable data for the area under the taxing jurisdiction, or reduced in the event of declining property values caused by substantial damage, destruction, or other factors. Legislation enacted by the State Legislature to implement Article XIIIA provides that notwithstanding any other law, local agencies may not levy any ad valorem property tax except to pay debt service on indebtedness approved by the voters as described above. Legislation Implementing Article XIIIA Legislation has been enacted and amended a number of times since 1978 to implement Article XIIIA. Under current law,local agencies are no longer permitted to levy directly any property tax(except to pay voter-approved indebtedness). The one percent property tax is automatically levied by the County and distributed according to a formula among taxing agencies. The formula apportions the tax roughly in proportion to the relative shares of taxes levied prior to 1989. Increases of assessed valuation resulting from reappraisals of property due to new construction, change in ownership or from the 2% annual adjustment are allocated among the various jurisdictions in the "taxing area" based upon their respective "situs." Any such allocation made to a local agency continues as part of its allocation in future years. Beginning in the 1981-82 fiscal year, assessors in the State no longer record property values an tax rolls at the assessed value of 25%of market value which was expressed as$4 per$100 assessed value. All taxable property is now shown at full market value on the tax rolls. Consequently, the tax rate is expressed as $I per $100 of taxable value. All taxable property value included in this Official Statement 52906807.6 46 Return to Mende Report is shown at 100% of market value(unless noted differently) and all tax rates reflect the $1 per $100 of taxable value. Article XIIIB of the California Constitution An initiative to amend the State Constitution entitled"Limitation of Government Appropriations" was approved on September 6, 1979, thereby adding Article XIIIB to the State Constitution ("Article XIIIB"). Under Article XIIIB,the State and each local governmental entity has an annual"appropriations limit" and is not permitted to spend certain moneys that are called"appropriations subject to limitation" (consisting of tax revenues, state subventions and certain other funds) in an amount higher than the appropriations limit. Article XIIIB does not affect the appropriations of moneys that are excluded from the definition of"appropriations subject to limitation," including debt service on indebtedness existing or authorized as of January 1, 1979, or bonded indebtedness subsequently approved by the voters. In general terms, the appropriations limit is to be based on certain 1978-79 expenditures, and is to be adjusted annually to reflect changes in consumer prices, populations, and services provided by these entities. Among other provisions of Article XIIIB, if these entities' revenues in any year exceed the amounts permitted to be spent,the excess would have to be returned by revising tax rates or fee schedules over the subsequent two years. "Appropriations subject to limitation" are authorizations to spend `proceeds of taxes," which consist of tax revenues, state subventions and certain other funds, including proceeds from regulatory licenses,user charges or other fees to the extent that such proceeds exceed"the cost reasonably home by such entity in providing the regulation,product or service,"but `proceeds of taxes" excludes tax refunds and some benefit payments such as unemployment insurance. No limit is imposed on appropriations of funds which are not "proceeds of taxes," such as reasonable user charges or fees, and certain other non- tax funds. Not included in the Article XIIIB limit are appropriations for the debt service costs of bonds existing or authorized by January 1, 1979, or subsequently authorized by the voters, appropriations required to comply with mandates of courts or the federal government and appropriations for qualified capital outlay projects. The appropriations limit may also be exceeded in certain cases of emergency. The appropriations limit for the District in each year is based o t the District's limit for the prior year, adjusted annually for changes in the cost of living and changes in population, and adjusted, where applicable, for transfer of financial responsibility of providing services to or from another unit of government. The change in the cost of living is, at the District's option, either(1)the percentage change in State per capita personal income, or (2) the percentage change in the local assessment roll on nonresidential property. Either test is likely to be greater than the change in the cost of living index, which was used prior to Proposition 111. Change in population is to be measured either within the jurisdiction of the District or the County as a whole. As amended by Proposition 111, the appropriations limit is tested over consecutive two-year periods. Any excess of the aggregate "proceeds of taxes" received by a District over such two-year period above the combined appropriations limits for those two years is to be returned to taxpayers by reductions in tax rates or fee schedules over the subsequent two years. As originally enacted in 1979,the District's appropriations limit was based on 1978-79 authorizations to expend proceeds of taxes and was adjusted annually to reflect changes in cost of living and population (using different definitions, which were modified by Proposition 111). Starting with Fiscal Year 1990-91,the District's appropriations limit was recalculated by taking the actual Fiscal Yew 1986-87 limit,and applying the annual adjustments as if Proposition III had been in effect. The District does not anticipate that any such appropriations 52906807 6 47 limitations will impair its ability to make Installment Payments as required by the Installment Purchase Agreement. Proposition 1A and Proposition 22 Proposition lA ("Proposition lA"), proposed by the Legislature in connection with the 2004-05 Budget Act and approved by the voters in November 2004, restricts State authority to reduce major local tax revenues such as the tax shifts permitted to take place in Fiscal Years 2004-05 and 2005-06. Proposition lA provides that the State may not reduce any local sales tax rate, limit existing local government authority to levy a sales tax rate or change the allocation of local sales tax revenues, subject to certain exceptions. Proposition lA generally prohibits the State from shifting to schools or community colleges any share of property tax revenues allocated to local governments for any fiscal year,as set forth under the laws in effect as of November 3, 2004. Any change in the allocation of property tax revenues among local governments within a county must be approved by two-thirds of both houses of the Legislature. Proposition IA provides, however, that beginning in Fiscal Year 2008-09, the State may shift to schools and community colleges up to 8%of local government property tax revenues,which amount must be repaid, with interest, within three years, if the Governor proclaims that the shift is needed due to a severe state financial hardship, the shift is approved by two-thirds of both houses and certain other conditions are met. Such a shift may not occur more than twice in any ten-year period. The State may also approve voluntary exchanges of local sales tax and property tax revenues among local governments within a county. Proposition IA was generally superseded by the passage of a new initiative constitutional amendment at the November 2010 election, known as Proposition 22 ("Proposition 22"). The effect of Proposition 22 is to prohibit the State, even during a period of severe fiscal hardship, from delaying the distribution of tax revenues for transportation,redevelopment, or local government projects and services. It prevents the State from redirecting redevelopment agency property tax increment to any other local government or from temporarily shifting property taxes from cities, counties and special districts to schools. This is intended to,among other things, stabilize local government revenue sources by restricting the State's control over local property taxes. Prior to the passage of Proposition 22, the State invoked Proposition lA to divert $1.935 billion in local properly tax revenues in fiscal year 2009-10 from cities, counties,and special districts to the State to offset State general fund spending for education and other programs. Approximately$5 million of the District's property tax revenues were diverted to the State as a result of this Proposition IA suspension. The District participated in a Proposition IA Securitization Program (the `Program") sponsored by the California Statewide Communities Development Authority. The Program allowed the District to exchange its anticipated State property tax receivable for an equal amount of cash. In addition,the State's adopted 2009-10 budget included a $1.7 billion diversion in local property tax revenues from local redevelopment agencies. Many California Redevelopment Association members are actively engaged in litigation to block such diversion and recoup certain payments already made under certain legislation passed in July 2009 that is beyond the reach of Proposition 22,known as"ABX4 26." Proposition lA also provides that if the State reduces the vehicle license fee ("VLF") rate currently in effect, 0.65% of vehicle value, the State most provide local governments with equal replacement revenues. Further, Proposition lA requires the State to suspend State mandates affecting cities, counties and special districts, excepting mandates relating to employee rights, schools or community colleges, in any year that the State does not fully reimburse local governments for their costs to comply with such mandates. 52906807.6 48 Return to Mende Report Article XMC and Article XIIID of the California Constitution Proposition 218, a State ballot initiative known as the "Right to Vote on Taxes Act," was approved by the voters on November 5, 1996. The initiative added Articles XIIIC and XIIID to the California Constitution,creating additional requirements for the imposition by most local governments of "general taxes,""special taxes,""assessments,""fees,"and`charges." Proposition 218 became effective, pursuant to its terms, as of November 6, 1996, although compliance with some of its provisions was deferred until July 1, 1997, and certain of its provisions purport to apply to any tax imposed for general governmental purposes (i.e., "general taxes") imposed, extended or increased on or after January 1, 1995 and prior to November 6, 1996. Article XIIID imposes substantive and procedural requirements on the imposition, extension or increase of any"fee" or`charge" subject to its provisions. A"fee"or `charge" subject to Article XIIID includes any levy, other than an ad valorem tax, special tax or assessment, imposed by an agency upon a parcel or upon a person as an incident of property ownership. Article XIIID prohibits, among other things, the imposition of any proposed fee or charge, and, possibly, the increase of any existing fee or charge, in the event written protests against the proposed fee or charge are presented at a required public hearing on the fee or charge by a majority of owners of the parcels upon which the fee or charge is to be imposed. Except for fees and charges for water, sewer and refuse collection services, the approval of a majority of the property owners subject to the fee or charge,or at the option of the agency,by a two-thirds vote of the electorate residing in the affected area,is required within 45 days following the public hearing on any such proposed new or increased fee or charge. The California Supreme Court decisions in Richmond v. Shasta Community Services District, 32 CalAth 409 (2004) (`Richmond'), and Bighorn- Desert View Water Agency v. Verdl, 39 Cal.4th 205 (2006) (`Bighorn") have clarified some of the uncertainty surrounding the applicability of Section 6 of Article XIIID to service fees and charges. In Richmond, the Shasta Community Services District charged a water connection fee, which included a capacity charge for capital improvements to the water system and a fire suppression charge. The Court held that both the capacity charge and the fire suppression charge were not subject to Article XIIID because a water connection fee is not a property-related fee or charge because it results from the property owner's voluntary decision to apply for the connection. In both Richmond and Bighorn, however, the Court stated that a fee for ongoing water service through an existing connection is imposed "as an incident of properly ownership" within the meaning of Article XIIID, rejecting, in Bighorn, the water agency's argument that consumption-based water charges are not imposed "as an incident of property ownership"but as a result of the voluntary decisions of customers as to how much water to use. Article XIIID also provides that"standby charges"are considered"assessments"and must follow the procedures required for "assessments" under Article XIIID and imposes several procedural requirements for the imposition of any assessment, which may include (1) various notice requirements, including the requirement to mail a ballot to owners of the affected property; (2) the substitution of a property owner ballot procedure for the traditional written protest procedure,and providing that"majority protest" exists when ballots (weighted according to proportional financial obligation) submitted in opposition exceed ballots in favor of the assessments; and (3) the requirement that the levying entity "separate the general benefits from the special benefits conferred on a parcel" of land. Article XIIID also precludes standby charges for services that are not immediately available to the parcel being charged. Article XIIID provides that all existing, new or increased assessments are to comply with its provisions beginning July 1, 1997. Existing assessments imposed on or before November 5, 1996, and "imposed exclusively to finance the capital costs or maintenance and operations expenses for [among other things] water" are exempted from some of the provisions of Article XIIID applicable to assessments. 52%6807.6 49 Article XIIIC extends the people's initiative power to reduce or repeal existing local taxes, assessments, fees and charges. This extension of the initiative power is not limited by the terms of Article XIIIC to fees, taxes, assessment fees and charges imposed after November 6, 1996 and absent other authority could result in retroactive reduction in any existing taxes, assessments, fees or charges. In Bighorn, the Court concluded that under Article XIIIC local voters by initiative may reduce a public agency's water rates and delivery charges. The Court noted, however, that it was not holding that the authorized initiative power is free of all limitations, stating that it was not determining whether the electorate's initiative power is subject to the public agency's statutory obligation to set water service charges at a level that will `pay the operating expenses of the agency, . . . provide for repairs and depreciation of works,provide a reasonable surplus for improvements,extensions,and enlargements,pay the interest on any bonded debt, and provide a sinking or other fund for the payment of the principal of such debt as it may become due" The District implemented a five-year plan beginning in Fiscal Year 2002-03 which included a rate increase of$7.50 per year, or 9.4%, for all ratepayers to $87.50 per year. In May 2003, the Board of Directors approved a 15% rate increase per year, for each year, over the then following five years, upon 2/3 vote of the Board of Directors after conducting a noticed public hearing in compliance with Article XIIID. The Board of Directors considered this increase necessary to provide needed capital improvements,to cover additional treatment and disinfection costs, and to minimize rate increases over an extended period of time. On July 2, 2003, the Board of Directors adopted Ordinance No. OCSD-20 increasing sanitary sewer service charges for all single family and multi-family residential units as well as most commercial and industrial properties. The Ordinance was adopted by a 2/3 vote of the Board of Directors as required under law after conducting a noticed public hearing in compliance with all laws. The Ordinance increases the amount of the annual charges by approximately 15%per year for each of the following five years, commencing with Fiscal Year 2003-04, thereby raising the single family residence user rate from the then current$87.50 to $100.00, $115.00,$132.00, $152.00, and$175.00 annually. The Ordinance discounted by 5%the annual increases which were the subject of the required protest hearings on the fee increase as described above. After the completion of the CIP Validation Study for Fiscal Year 2005-06 that increased its ten year CIP cash flow projects to $2.2 billion, or an average of$220 million per year, the Board of Directors adopted Ordinance No. OCSD-26 increasing the Fiscal Year 2005-06 single family residential rate 31%,from$115 to$151 for such year. In May 2006,the Board of Directors adopted Ordinance No. OCSD-30B increasing the Fiscal Year 2006-07 single family residential rate 9.8%, from$151.00 to $165.80 for such year, except those located in Revenue Area 14. These increases represented the increase permitted under the protest hearings on the fee increase which was held in 2003. In Jane 2007, the Board of Directors adopted Ordinance No. OCSD-32 increasing the Fiscal Year 2007- 08 single family residential rate by 9.8%. In February 2008, after a noticed public hearing, the Board of Directors adopted Ordinance No.OCSD-35, which provides for annual increases in the single family residential rate of 10.4%, 10.0%, 10.4%, 9.4%and 10.1%,respectively, for Fiscal Years 2008-09 through 2012-13. On March 27, 2013, the Board of Directors adopted Ordinance No. OCSD41 approving increases in its sanitary sewer service charges for all single family residences, multi-family residential units, and all non-residential properties. The Board increased the single family residential rate,which is the basis for all of the District's sewer service charges,by 4.8%for Fiscal Year 2013-14 and thereafter by an average of 2.4%annually for each Fiscal Year through Fiscal Year 2017-18. Pursuant to the Master Agreement, the District will,to the extent permitted by law, fix, prescribe and collect fees and charges for the services of the Wastewater System which will be at least sufficient to yield during each Fiscal Year(a)Net Revenues equal to 125%of Debt Service on Senior Obligations for such Fiscal Year, and(b)Net Operating Revenues equal to 100% of Debt Service on all Obligations for such Fiscal Year. The District may make adjustments from time to time in such fees and charges and may make such classification thereof as it deems necessary, but will not reduce the fees and charges then in effect unless the Revenues and Net Revenues from such reduced fees and charges will at all times be 52906807.6 50 Return to Mende Report sufficient to meet the requirements of the Master Agreement. In the event that service charges are determined to be subject to Article XIIID,and proposed increased service charges cannot be imposed as a result of a majority protest, such circumstances may adversely effect the ability of the District to generate revenues in the amounts required by the Master Agreement, and to make Installment Payments as provided in the Installment Purchase Agreement. No assurance may be given that Articles XIIIC and XIIID will not have a material adverse impact on Net Revenues. Other Initiative Measures Articles XIIIA, XIIIB, XIIIC and XIIID were adopted pursuant to California's constitutional initiative process. From time to time other initiative measures could be adopted by California voters, placing additional limitations on the ability of the District to increase revenues.

The District has received the Government Finance Officer's Association Certificate of Achievement for "Excellence in Financial Reporting" for 17 consecutive years. The audited financial statements, including the footnotes thereto, should be reviewed in their entirety. McGladrey & Pullen, LLP, the District's independent auditor, has not been engaged to perform, and has not performed, since the date of its report included in Appendix A, any procedures on the financial statements addressed in that report. McGladrey & Pullen, LLP also has not performed any procedures relating to this official statement. TAX MATTERS The Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code") imposes certain requirements that most be met subsequent to the execution and delivery of the Notes for the interest component of the Installment Payment (the "Interest Component"), and the allocable portion thereof distributable in respect of each Note(the"Note Interest Distribution"),to be and remain excluded pursuant to section 103(a)of the Code from the gross income of the owners thereof from the gross income of the owner thereof for federal income tax purposes. Noncompliance with such requirements could cause such amounts to be included in gross income for federal income tax purposes retroactive to the date of delivery of the Installment Purchase Agreement and the Notes. In the opinion of Fulbright & Jaworski LLP, Los Angeles, California, Special Counsel, under existing statutes, regulations, rulings and court decisions, the Interest Component allocable to and the Note Interest Distributions in respect of a Note is exempt from personal income taxes of the State of California and, assuming compliance with the covenants referred to herein, the Interest Component allocable to and the Note Interest Distributions in respect of a Note are excluded pursuant to section 103(a) of the Code from the gross income of the owners thereof for federal income tax purposes. In the further opinion of Special Counsel,under existing statutes,regulations, mlings and court decisions, the Notes are not"specified private activity bonds" within the meaning of section 57(a)(5) of the Code and,therefore,the Interest Component allocable to and the Note Interest Distributions in respect of a Note will not be treated as an item of tax preference for purposes of computing the alternative minimum tax imposed by section 55 of the Code. Receipt or accrual of the Interest Component allocable to and the Note Interest Distributions in respect of a Note owned by a corporation may affect the computation of the alternative minimum taxable income.A corporation's alternative minimum taxable income is the basis on which the alternative minimum tax imposed by section 55 of the Code will be computed. Notice 94-84, 1994-2 C.B. 559, states that the Internal Revenue Service (the "Service") is studying whether the stated interest portion of the payment at maturity on a short-term debt obligation (such as the Notes),that matures not more than one year from the date of issue,bears a stated fixed rate of interest and is described in section 103(a) of the Code,is (i) qualified stated interest that is excluded from the stated redemption price at maturity of the obligation(within the meaning of section 1273 of the Code) but is excluded from gross income pursuant to section 103(a) of the Code, or (ii) is not qualified stated interest and, therefore, is included by the taxpayer in the stated redemption price at maturity of the obligation, creating or increasing (as to that taxpayer) original issue discount on the obligation that is excluded from gross income pursuant to section 103(a) of the Code. Notice 94-84 states that until the 52906807.6 52 Return b Aaenda Report Service provides further guidance with respect to tax-exempt short-term debt obligations, a taxpayer holding such obligations may treat the stated interest payable at maturity either as qualified stated interest or as included in the stated redemption price at maturity of the obligation. However, the taxpayer must treat the amounts to be paid at maturity on all tax-exempt short-term debt obligations in a consistent manner. Notice 94-84 does not address various aspects necessary to the application of the latter method (including, for example, the treatment of a holder acquiring its Note other than in the original public offering or at a price other than the original offering price). Each person considering acquiring the Notes should consult its own tax advisor with respect to the tax consequences of ownership of and of the election between the choices of treatment of the stated interest payable at maturity on the Notes. The initial public offering price for the Notes is greater than the principal amount payable on the Notes at maturity. To the extent that a purchaser of a Note who treats the stated interest payable at maturity as qualified stated interest (as described above) acquires the Note at a price greater than the aggregate amount (other than such qualified stated interest) payable on such Note, such excess will constitute "bond premium" under the Code. Section 171 of the Code, and the Treasury Regulations promulgated thereunder, provide generally that bond premium on a non-callable tax-exempt obligation must be amortized over the remaining term of the obligation: the amount of premium so amortized will reduce the owner's basis in such Note for federal income tax purposes,but such amortized premium will not be deductible for federal income tax purposes. Consequently, an owner of a Note who purchased the Note with bond premium and held the Note until paid at maturity generally will not realize tax gain or loss on such Note. The rate and timing of the amortization of the bond premium and the corresponding basis reduction may result in an owner realizing a taxable gain when a Note owned by such owner is sold or disposed of for an amount equal to or in some circumstances even less than the original cost of the Note to the owner. Purchasers should consult their own tax advisors as to the computation and treatment of such amortizable bond premium, including, but not limited to, the calculation of gain or loss upon the sale,maturity or other disposition of a Note. Pursuant to the Trust Agreement and in the Tax Certificate Pertaining to Arbitrage and Other Matters under Sections 103 and 141-150 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, to be delivered by the District and the Corporation in connection with the issuance of the Notes,the District and the Corporation will make representations relevant to the determination of, and will make certain covenants regarding or affecting, the exclusion of interest on the Notes from the gross income of the owners thereof for federal income tax purposes. In reaching its opinions described above, Special Counsel will assume the accuracy of such representations and the present and future compliance by the District and the Corporation with such covenants referred to herein. Further, except as stated above, Special Counsel will express no opinion as to any Federal or state tax consequences of the receipt of interest on, or the ownership or disposition of,the Notes. Special Counsel has not undertaken to advise in the future whether any events after the date of execution and delivery of the Installment Purchase Agreement and the Notes may affect the tax status of the Interest Component or the Note Interest Distributions. No assurance can be given that future legislation, if enacted into law, will not contain provisions that could directly or indirectly reduce the benefit of the exemption of such amounts from personal income taxation by the State of California or of the exclusion of the interest on the Notes from the gross income of the owners thereof for federal income tax purposes. Furthermore, Special Counsel will express no opinion as to any federal, state or local tax law consequences with respect to the Installment Purchase Agreement,the Notes, the Interest Component or Note Interest Distributions, if any action is taken with respect to the Installment Purchase Agreement, the Notes or the proceeds thereof, or the Trust Agreement predicated or permitted upon the advice or approval of other counsel. 52%6807.6 53 Special Counsel's opinion is not a guarantee of a result, but represents its legal judgment based upon its review of existing statutes, regulations, published rulings and court decisions and the representations and covenants of the District and the Corporation described above. No ruling has been sought from the Internal Revenue Service (the "Service") with respect to the matters addressed in the opinion of Special Counsel,and Special Counsel's opinion is not binding on the Service. The Service has an ongoing program of auditing the tax-exempt status of the interest on municipal obligations. If an audit of the Notes is commenced, under current procedures the Service is likely to treat the District as the "taxpayer," and the owners would have no right to participate in the audit process. In responding to or defending an audit of the tax-exempt status of the Interest Component and Note Interest Distributions accrued in respect of Notes, the District may have different or conflicting interest from the owners. Public awareness of any future audit of the Notes could adversely affect the value and liquidity of the Notes during the pendency of the audit,regardless of its ultimate outcome. Although Special Counsel is of the opinion that Interest Component and Note Interest Distributions in respect of a Note are exempt from California personal income tax and excluded from the gross income of the owners thereof for federal income tax purposes, an owner's federal, state or local tax liability may be otherwise affected by the ownership or disposition of the Notes. The nature and extent of these other tax consequences will depend upon the owner's other items of income or deduction. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, prospective purchasers of the Notes should be aware that (i) section 265 of the Code denies a deduction for interest on indebtedness incurred or continued to purchase or carry the Notes and the Code contains additional limitations on interest deductions applicable to financial institutions that own tax-exempt obligations (such as the Notes), (ii) with respect to insurance companies subject to the tax imposed by section 831 of the Code, section 832(b)(5)(B)(i) reduces the deduction for loss reserves by 15% of the sum of certain items, including Interest Component and Note Interest Distributions in respect of the Notes, (iii) Interest Component and Note Interest Distributions accrued in respect of Notes owned by certain foreign corporations doing business in the United States could be subject to a branch profits tax imposed by section 884 of the Code, (iv) passive investment income,including Interest Component and Note Interest Distributions accrued in respect of Notes,may be subject to federal income taxation under section 1375 of the Code for Subchapter S corporations that have Subchapter C earnings and profits at the close of the taxable year if greater than 25%of the gross receipts of such Subchapter S corporation is passive investment income, (v) section 86 of the Code requires recipients of certain Social Security and certain Railroad Retirement benefits to take into account, in determining the taxability of such benefits, Interest Distributions and Note Interest Distributions accrued in respect of Notes owned by such recipients for federal income tax purposes,and(vi)under section 32(i) of the Code, receipt of investment income, including Interest Component and Note Interest Distributions accrued in respect of Notes,may disqualify the recipient thereof from obtaining the earned income credit. Special Counsel has expressed no opinion regarding any such other tax consequences. Existing law may change to reduce or eliminate the benefit to noteholders of the exclusion of interest on the Interest Component and Note Interest Distributions accrued in respect of the Notes from gross income for federal income tax purposes. Any proposed legislation or administrative action,whether or not taken, could also affect the value and marketability of the Notes. Prospective purchasers of the Notes should consult with their own tax advisors with respect to any proposed or future changes in tax law. A copy of the form of opinion of Special Counsel to be delivered at the closing of the Notes is included in Appendix F. 52906807.6 54 Return to Mende Report CONTINUING DISCLOSURE The District has covenamed for the benefit of holders and beneficial owners of the Notes to provide notices of the occurrence of certain enumerated events. The notices of material events, if any, will be filed by the Dissemination Agent on behalf of the District with the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board. The specific nature of the information to be contained in the notices of enumerated events is set forth in the Continuing Disclosure Agreement. See APPENDIX D — "FORM OF CONTINUING DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT." This covenant has been made in order to assist the Initial Purchaser in complying with S.E.C. Rule 15c2-12 (the "Rule'). During the past five years, the District bas never failed to comply in all material respects with any previous undertaking with respect to the Rule to provide annual reports or notices of material events. RATINGS The Notes will be assigned short-term ratings of" "by Standard&Poor's Ratings Services, a Standard&Poor's Financial Services LLC business ("S&P") and'—'by Fitch Ratings ("Fitch"). S&P and Fitch affirmed the long-term ratings of "=' and " ," respectively, on the District's Existing Senior Obligations. Such ratings reflect only the views of the rating agencies, and do not constitute a recommendation to buy, sell or hold the Notes. Explanation of the significance of such ratings may be obtained only from the respective organizations at: Standard&Poor's Ratings Services, 55 Water Street, New York, New York 10041 and Fitch Ratings, One State Street Plaza, New York, New York 10004. There is no assurance that any such ratings will continue for any given period of time or that they will not be revised downward or withdrawn entirely by the respective rating agencies, if in the judgment of any such rating agency circumstances so warrant. Any such downward revision or withdrawal of such ratings may have an adverse effect on the market price of the Notes. PURCHASE AND REOFFERING (the "Initial Purchaser") has purchased the Notes from the District at a competitive sale for a purchase price of$ (representing the aggregate principal amount of the Notes, plus a premium of$ less an underwriter's discount of$ .

ORANGE COUNTY SANITATION DISTRICT By: Chair of the Board of Directors 52906807.6 56 Return to Aaenda Report APPENDIX A COMPREHENSIVE ANNUAL FINANCIAL REPORT OF THE ORANGE COUNTY SANITATION DISTRICT FOR FISCAL YEAR ENDED JUNE 30,2012 52W6807.6 A-1 APPENDIX B THE COUNTY OF ORANGE-ECONOMIC AND DEMOGRAPHIC INFORMATION 52906807.6 B-1 Return to Aaenda Report APPENDIX C SUMMARY OF PRINCIPAL LEGAL DOCUMENTS 52W6805.6 G1 APPENDIX D FORM OF CONTINUING DISCLOSURE AGREEMENT 52906807.6 D-1 Return to Aaentla Report APPENDIX E BOOK-ENTRY SYSTEM The description that follows of the procedures and recordkeeping with respect to beneficial ownership interests in the Notes,payment ofprincipal and interest evidenced by the Notes to Participants or Beneficial Owners, confirmation and transfer of beneficial ownership interests in the Notes, and other Note-related transactions by and between DTC, Participants and Beneficial Owners, is based on information furnished by DTC which the District and the Corporation each believes to be reliable, but the District and the Corporation take no responsibility for the completeness or accuracy thereof. The Depository Trust Company—Book-Entry System The Depository Trust Company("DTC'),New York,NY,will act as securities depository for the securities (the "Notes"). The Notes will be issued as fully-registered securities registered in the name of Cede & Co. (DTC's partnership nominee) or such other name as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. One fully-registered note will be issued for the Notes in the aggregate principal amount of such issue,and will be deposited with DTC. DTC is a limited-purpose trust company organized under the New York Banking Law, a "banking organization" within the meaning of the New York Banking Law, a member of the Federal Reserve System, a "clearing corporation" within the meaning of the New York Uniform Commercial Code, and a `blearing agency" registered pursuant to the provisions of Section 17A of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. DTC holds and provides asset servicing for over 3.5 million U.S. and non-U.S. equity issues, corporate and municipal debt issues, and money market instruments (from over 100 countries) that DTC's participants ("Direct Participants") deposit with DTC. DTC also facilitates the post-trade settlement among Direct Participants of sales and other securities transactions in deposited securities,through electronic computerized book-entry transfers and pledges between Direct Participants' accounts. This eliminates the need for physical movement of securities certificates. Direct Participants include both U.S. and non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, clearing corporations,and certain other organizations. DTC is a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Depository Trust & Clearing Corporation ("DTCC"). DTCC is the holding company for DTC, National Securities Clearing Corporation and Fixed Income Clearing Corporation, all of which are registered clearing agencies. DTCC is owned by the users of its regulated subsidiaries. Access to the DTC system is also available to others such as both U.S. and non-U.S. securities brokers and dealers, banks, trust companies, and clearing corporations that clear through or maintain a custodial relationship with a Direct Participant, either directly or indirectly("Indirect Participants"). DTC has a Standard&Poor's rating of"AA+." The DTC Rules applicable to its Participants are on file with the Securities and Exchange Commission. More information about DTC can be found at www.dtcacom. The information on such website is not incorporated herein by such reference or otherwise. Purchases of Notes under the DTC system must be made by or through Direct Participants,which will receive a credit for the Notes on DTC's records. The ownership interest of each actual purchaser of each Note (`Beneficial Owner") is in turn to be recorded on the Direct and Indirect Participants' records. Beneficial Owners will not receive written confirmation from DTC of their purchase. Beneficial Owners we, however, expected to receive written confirmations providing details of the transaction, as well as periodic statements of their holdings,from the Direct or Indirect Participant through which the Beneficial Owner entered into the transaction. Transfers of ownership interests in the Notes are to be accomplished by entries made on the books of Direct and Indirect Participants acting on behalf of Beneficial Owners. Beneficial Owners will not receive certificates representing their ownership interests in the Notes, except in the event that use of the book-entry system for the Notes is discontinued. 52906807.6 E-1 To facilitate subsequent transfers, all Notes deposited by Direct Participants with DTC are registered in the name of DTC's partnership nominee, Cede & Co. or such other time as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. The deposit of Notes with DTC and their registration in the name of Cede&Co. or such other nominee do not effect any change in beneficial ownership. DTC has no knowledge of the actual Beneficial Owners of the Notes; DTC's records reflect only the identity of the Direct Participants to whose accounts such Notes are credited, which may or may not be the Beneficial Owners. The Direct and Indirect Participants will remain responsible for keeping account of their holdings on behalf of their customers. Conveyance of notices and other communications by DTC to Direct Participants, by Direct Participants to Indirect Participants, and by Direct Participants and Indirect Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by arrangements among them, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Beneficial Owners of Notes may wish to take certain steps to augment transmission to them of notices of significant events with respect to the Notes, such as prepayments, tenders, defaults, and proposed amendments to the security documents. For example, Beneficial Owners of Notes may wish to ascertain that the nominee holding the Notes for their benefit has agreed to obtain and transmit notices to Beneficial Owners, in the alternative, Beneficial Owners may wish to provide their names and addresses to the registrar and request that copies of the notices be provided directly to them. Prepayment notices shall be sent to DTC. If less than all of the Notes within an issue are being prepaid,DTC's practice is to determine by lot the amount of the interest of each Direct Participant in such issue to be prepaid. Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. (nor such other DTC nominee)will consent or vote with respect to the Notes unless authorized by a Direct Participant in accordance with DTC's MMI Procedures. Under its usual procedures, DTC mails an Omnibus Proxy to the District as soon as possible after the record date. The Omnibus Proxy assigns Cede&Co.'s consenting or voting rights to those Direct Participants to whose accounts the Notes are credited on the record date (identified in a listing attached to the Omnibus Proxy). Prepayments with respect to the Notes will be made to Cede&Co.,or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC. DTC's practice is to credit Direct Participants' accounts, upon DTC's receipt of funds and corresponding detail information from the District or the Trustee on the payable date in accordance with their respective holdings shown on DTC's records. Payments by Participants to Beneficial Owners will be governed by standing instructions and customary practices, as is the case with securities held for the accounts of customers in bearer form or registered in "street name," and will be the responsibility of such Participant and not of DTC, nor its nominee, the Trustee, or the District, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time. Payment of prepayment proceeds, distributions, and dividend payments to Cede & Co. (or such other nominee as may be requested by an authorized representative of DTC) is the responsibility of the District or the Trustee, disbursement of such payments to Direct Participants will be the responsibility of DTC, and disbursement of such payments to the Beneficial Owners will be the responsibility of Direct and Indirect Participants. DTC may discontinue providing its services as securities depository with respect to the Notes at any time by giving reasonable notice to the District or the Trustee. Under such circumstances, in the event that a successor securities depository is not obtained,Notes are required to be printed and delivered. The District may decide to discontinue use of the system of book-entry-only transfers through DTC(or a successor securities depository). In that event,Notes will be printed and delivered to DTC. 52906807.6 E-2 Return b Mende Report The information in this section concerning DTC and DTC's book-entry system has been obtained from sources that the District believes to be reliable, but the District takes no responsibility for the accuracy thereof. Discontinuance of DTC Services In the event (i)DTC determines not to continue to act as securities depository for the Notes, (ii)DTC shall no longer act and give notice to the Trustee of such determination or (iii)the District determines that it is in the best interest of the Beneficial Owners that they be able to obtain Notes and delivers a written certificate to the Trustee to that effect, DTC services will be discontinued. If the District determines to replace DTC with another qualified securities depository, the District shall prepare or direct the preparation of a new single, separate, fully registered Note for each of the maturities of the Notes, registered in the time of such successor or substitute qualified securities depository or its nominee. If the District fails to identify another qualified securities depository to replace DTC then the Notes shall no longer be restricted to being registered in the certificate registration books in the time of Cede & Co., but shall be registered in such names as are requested in a certificate of the District, in accordance with the Trust Agreement. All Notes may be presented for transfer by the Owner thereof, in person or by his attorney duly authorized in writing, at the Principal Office of the Trustee, on the books required to be kept by the Trustee pursuant to the provisions of the Trust Agreement, upon surrender of such Certifications for cancellation accompanied by delivery of a duly executed written instrument of transfer in a form acceptable to the Trustee. The Trustee may treat the Owner of any Note as the absolute owner of such Note for all purposes,whether or not such Note shall be overdue, and the Trustee shall not be affected by any knowledge or notice to the contrary; and payment of the interest and principal evidenced by such Note shall be made only to such Owner, which payments shall be valid and effectual to satisfy and discharge the liability evidenced by such Note to the extent of the sum or suns so paid. Whenever any Notes shall be surrendered for transfer, the Trustee shall execute and deliver new Notes representing the same principal amount in Authorized Denominations. The Trustee shall require the payment of any Owner requesting such transfer of any tax or other governmental charge required to be paid with respect to such transfer. Notes may be presented for exchange at the Principal Office of the Trustee for a like aggregate principal amount of Notes of other Authorized Denominations. The Trustee shall require the payment by the Owner requesting such exchange of any tax or other governmental charge required to be paid with respect to such exchange. The Trustee shall not be required to transfer or exchange any Note during the period in which the Trustee is selecting Notes for prepayment, nor shall the Trustee be required to transfer or exchange any Note or portion thereof selected for prepayment from and after the date of mailing the notice of prepayment thereof. 52%6807.6 E-3 APPENDIX F FORM OF APPROVING OPINION OF SPECIAL COUNSEL Upon the execution and delivery of the Notes, Fulbright& Jaworski LLP, Los Angeles, California, Special Counsel to the District will render its final approving opinion with respect to the Notes in substantially the following form: [Date of Delivery] Orange County Sanitation District 10844 Ellis Avenue Fountain Valley,California 92708-7018 Orange County Sanitation District Revenue Refunding Certificate Anticipation Notes, Series 2013A Ladies and Gentlemen: We have acted as Special Counsel in connection with the $ aggregate principal amount of Orange County Sanitation District Revenue Refunding Certificate Anticipation Notes, Series 2013A (the "Notes"), which evidence direct, fractional undivided interests of the Owners thereof in the installment payment (the "Installment Payment'), and the interest thereon, to be made by the Orange County Sanitation District (the "District') pursuant to the Installment Purchase Agreement, dated as of October 1, 2013 (the `Installment Purchase Agreement'), by and between the District and the Orange County Sanitation District Financing Corporation(the"Corporation'). Pursuant to the Master Agreement for District Obligations, dated as of August 1, 2000 (the "Master Agreement"), by and between the District and the Corporation, the District has established conditions and terms upon which obligations such as the Installment Payment and the interest thereon, will be incurred and secured. The Installment Payment under the Installment Purchase Agreement is payable from (i)Net Revenues as provided in the Installment Purchase Agreement, consisting primarily of all income and revenue received by the District from the operation or ownership of the Wastewater System of the District (the "Wastewater System") remaining after payment of Maintenance and Operation Costs, and (ii)other lawfully available funds of the District.

We have also examined such certificates of officers of the District, the Corporation and others as we have considered necessary for the purposes of this opinion. Based upon the foregoing,we are of the opinion that: 1. The Master Agreement, the Installment Purchase Agreement and the Trust Agreement each has been duly and validly authorized,executed and delivered by the District and, assuming the Master Agreement, the Installment Purchase Agreement and the Trust Agreement each constitutes the legally valid and binding obligation of the other parties thereto, each constitutes the legally valid and binding obligation of the District,enforceable against the District in accordance with its respective terms 2. The obligation of the District to pay the Installment Payment, and the interest thereon, and other payments required to be made by it under the Installment Purchase Agreement is a special obligation of the District payable, in the manner provided in the Installment Purchase Agreement, from Net Revenues and other funds provided for in the Installment Purchase Agreement lawfully available therefor. 3. Assuming due authorization, execution and delivery of the Trust Agreement and the Notes by the Trustee,the Notes are entitled to the benefits of the Trust Agreement. 4. Under existing statutes, regulations, rulings and court decisions, and, assuming compliance with the covenants mentioned below, the component of each Installment Payment designated as "Interest on Installment Payment" in Section 3.02 of the Installment Purchase Agreement (the `Interest Component"), and the allocable portion thereof distributable in respect of any Note (the "Note Interest Distribution"), is excluded pursuant to section 103(a) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code") from the gross income of the owners thereof for federal income tax purposes. We are further of the opinion that under existing statutes, regulations, rulings and court decisions, the Notes me not "specified private activity bonds" within the meaning of section 57(a)(5)of the Code and,therefore,the Interest Component and the Note Interest Distributions will not be treated as an item of tax preference for purposes of computing the alternative minimum tax imposed by section 55 of the Code. Receipt or accrual of the Interest Component,and the Note Interest Distribution,owned by a corporation may affect the computation of the alternative minimum taxable income of that corporation. A corporation's alternative minimum taxable income is the basis on which the alternative minimum tax imposed by section 55 of the Code will be computed. We are further of the opinion that the Interest Component allocable to and the Note Interest Distributions in respect of a Note, are exempt from personal income taxes of the State of California under present state law. Pursuant to the Trust Agreement and in the Tax Certificate Pertaining to Arbitrage and Other Matters under Sections 103 and 141-150 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, to be delivered by the District in connection with the execution and delivery of the Notes, the District will make representations relevant to the determination of, and will make certain covenants regarding or affecting,the exclusion of the Interest Component and the Note Interest Distribution from the gross income of the owners thereof for Federal income tax purposes. In reaching the opinions described in the immediately preceding paragraph, we have assumed the accuracy of such representations and the present and future compliance by the District with such covenants. 52906807.6 F-1 Except as stated in the second preceding paragraph, we express no opinion as to any federal or state tax consequence of the ownership or disposition of the Installment Purchase Agreement or the Notes. Furthermore,we express no opinion as to any federal, state or local tax law consequences with respect to the Installment Purchase Agreement, Notes, Interest Component, or Note Interest Distributions, if any action is taken with respect to the Installment Purchase Agreement, the Master Agreement, the Trust Agreement, the Notes or the proceeds thereof,permitted or predicated on the advice or approval of counsel,if such advice or approval is given by counsel other than us. The rights of the owners of the Notes and the enforceability of the Notes, the Master Agreement, the Trust Agreement and the Installment Purchase Agreement may be subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws affecting creditors' rights heretofore or hereafter enacted and may also be subject to the exercise of judicial discretion in appropriate cases. The enforceability of the Notes, the Master Agreement, the Trust Agreement and the Installment Purchase Agreement is subject to the effect of general principles of equity, including, without limitation, concepts of materiality, reasonableness, good faith and fair dealing, to the possible unavailability of specific performance or injunctive relief,regardless of whether considered in a proceeding in equity or at law,and to the limitations on legal remedies against governmental entities in California.

At any time before or after delivery of the Notes to the successful bidder, that successful bidder also may be required by the District or Special Counsel to clarify any discrepancies between the Certificate of Initial Purchaser and publicly available information relating to trades of the Notes that might suggest that the initial sale of a substantial portion of the Notes to the public was at a materially higher price than the price stated for that maturity in the Certificate of Initial Purchaser. Bidders may bid to purchase Notes from the District with a premium; however, no bid will be considered if the bid is to purchase Notes at an aggregate price less than 100% or more than 104% of the aggregate principal amount of the Notes.

ADMINISTRATION COMMITTEE Meeting Date To ad.of Dir. 09/11/13 09/25/13 AGENDA REPORT Item Number Item Number s Orange County Sanitation District FROM: James D. Herberg, General Manager Lorenzo Tyner, Director of Finance and Administrative Services SUBJECT: IMPLEMENTATION OF ENFOTECH IPACS PRETREATMENT INFORMATION MANAGEMENT SOFTWARE SYSTEM GENERAL MANAGER'S RECOMMENDATION A. Approve a Professional Services Agreement with enfoTech & Consulting, Inc., Specification CS-2012-52513D, for Implementation of a Commercial-off-the-shelf Pretreatment Information Management System, for an amount not to exceed $780,393; and B. Approve first year technical support and maintenance for the amount of $65,266; and C. Approve a contingency of$84,566 (10%). SUMMARY The Pretreatment Information Management System is used by the Engineering and Facilities Support Services departments to centrally manage the industrial waste control and pretreatment program to ensure environmental compliance with operating permits. The Orange County Sanitation District (OCSD) is replacing our existing legacy pretreatment software solution with a commercial system (iPACS by enfoTech) that is used by multiple large publically owned wastewater treatment facilities. PRIOR COMMITTEE/BOARD ACTIONS N/A ADDITIONAL INFORMATION On June 13, 2012, OCSD issued a Request for Proposal (RFP) to implement a commercial-off-the-shelf Pretreatment Information Management System. The existing system was built over the period of 20 years by multiple software developers using contract and OCSD staff. At the time of inception, commercial products were not available. In the past seven years, at least four major software vendors have products specifically designed for the industrial waste control and pretreatment programs. Page 1 of 3 EnfoTech's iPACS product has been successfully implemented in a number of wastewater facilities including LA County Sanitation District, Metro Water Reclamation — Chicago, New York City, City of San Jose, and City of Phoenix. The standard product addresses core business processes. There are other functions that the OCSD compliance programs address and may need to be added as optional parts of the software solution. If the OCSD implementation team decides that the core functionality requires these additional enhancements, then the contingency will be used to include these options. On July 12, 2012, two proposals were received. A panel consisting of seven OCSD staff from Information Technology and Engineering reviewed and ranked each of the proposals in accordance with District procedures. This RFP used the consensus scoring method. During consensus scoring sessions, the evaluation facilitator directs the team's attention to each item in the specifications. The evaluation team considers one proposal at a time, comparing the vendor's proposed offering against the specifications in the underlying RFP. Consensus scoring sessions encourage open discussions and questions among members of the evaluation team. Evaluators discuss the relative strengths and weaknesses of a vendor's proposal in each area. The following criteria/weights were used to evaluate the proposals: Project Implementation Work Plan (15a/%), Proposed Alternatives to Out of Scope Items (15%), Software Functionality, Features, and Upgrade Roadmap (15e/%), Vendor Stability, Experience, and Past Performance in Delivering Product to a Similar Utility (25%), and Cost Evaluation (30%). The solution proposed by enfoTech & Consulting, Inc. was rated higher than the Inflection Point Solutions proposed solution. Staff recommends awarding the Professional Services Agreement and maintenance agreement to enfoTech & Consulting, Inc. for a not-to-exceed amount of$845,659. OCSD's Pretreatment Program is extremely complex and therefore implementing a new software system that replaces the existing functionality carries some risk. EnfoTech scored higher than Inflection Point Solutions in understanding the project requirements, the overall project proposal including their project approach, software flexibility, and roadmap for future upgrades. Based on a gap analysis, EnfoTech proposed suitable alternatives to fill identified gaps. The evaluation team determined that the risk to OCSD's Pretreatment Program is substantially lower by selecting the enfoTech solution.
