Review of Existing Debt: <br />Continuing Disclosure: <br />Arbitrage Monitoring: <br />Risk Factors: <br />You have the choice to limit the amount of premium in the bid specifications. This <br />may result in fewer bids, but it may also eliminate large adjustments on the day of <br />sale and other uncertainties. <br />We have reviewed all outstanding indebtedness for the City and find that there are <br />no refunding opportunities at this time. <br />We will continue to monitor the market and the call dates for the City's outstanding <br />debt and will alert you to any future refunding opportunities. <br />Because the City has more than $10,000,000 in outstanding debt (including this <br />issue), the City will be agreeing to provide certain updated Annual Financial <br />Information and its Audited Financial Statement annually as well as providing <br />notices of the occurrence of certain reportable events to the Municipal Securities <br />Rulemaking Board (the "MSRB"), as required by rules of the Securities and <br />Exchange Commission (SEC). The City is already obligated to provide such <br />reports for its existing bonds, and has contracted with Ehlers to prepare and file the <br />reports. <br />Because the Bonds are tax-exempt obligations/tax credit obligations, the City must <br />ensure compliance with certain Internal Revenue Service (IRS) rules throughout <br />the life of the issue. These rules apply to all gross proceeds of the issue, including <br />initial bond proceeds and investment earnings in construction, escrow, debt <br />service, and any reserve funds. How issuers spend bond proceeds and how they <br />track interest earnings on funds (arbitrage/yield restriction compliance) are <br />common subjects of IRS inquiries. Your specific responsibilities will be detailed <br />in the Nonarbitrage Certificate prepared by your Bond Attorney and provided at <br />closing. You have retained Ehlers to assist you with compliance with these rules. <br />If significant amounts of prepayments of special assessments are received, the levy <br />may need to be increased in future years because the City's investment earnings <br />on additional prepayments will likely be less than the assessment rate. <br />Presale Report <br />City of Ramsey, Minnesota <br />June 27, 2017 <br />Page 3 <br />
